Since 20021year, corn prices have risen sharply, and the rise of corn market has also stimulated the rise of feed prices. 65438+1October 1 1, feed prices began to rise, and in the next few days, the increase rate was also relatively large. The increase in the cost of laying hens directly affects the price of eggs, which in turn leads to an increase in the price of eggs.
Second, the influence of supply and demand.
Due to the low temperature in winter this year and the elimination of old hens at the end of the year, the egg production of laying hens has also decreased. Coupled with the approaching Spring Festival, people's consumption of eggs has increased, changing the relationship between supply and demand of eggs. In a short period of time, there was a shortage of supply, which also caused a sudden and rapid increase in egg prices.
Third, affected by the market environment.
The current epidemic situation is still of concern to everyone, so everyone changed their diet. At the same time, they increased their expectations for egg transportation and the increase in egg prices, thus increasing their purchases, which is another factor driving the increase in egg prices.
Under the comprehensive effect of the above three reasons, the price of eggs rose strongly in mid-June at 5438+ 10, which led to the active purchase and sale of all links in the market. According to the egg market data released by the Ministry of Agriculture, from1October 202 1 9, the average purchase price of eggs rose from 8.06 yuan per kilogram to 10.34 yuan per kilogram, with an increase of 28.29%.
However, with the soaring price of eggs, people's consumption of eggs has also been limited to some extent, and the egg market has begun to weaken. From the 20th, the price of eggs began to show a downward trend. However, due to the decrease in egg supply and the increase in egg consumption near the Spring Festival, supported by the market, the possibility of egg price rebound in the later period is basically a foregone conclusion.
Summary: the comprehensive reason for the recent rapid increase in egg prices is nothing more than the impact of the increase in corn prices, which has boosted feed prices and increased the cost of laying hens; Coupled with the impact of public health events, the number of hens eliminated increased at the end of the year, the number of hens decreased, low temperature weather and other factors affecting egg production, as well as the psychological reasons why some farmers are reluctant to sell eggs after the price of eggs rose, resulting in a rapid and sharp rebound in egg prices recently.
