Kunming: Recently, the price of eggs has increased by 1 to 3 yuan per kilogram.

Recently, apart from pork and fruit, the public also found that the price of eggs is a little higher than last month. Reporters recently visited Seal New Trade Market, Himat Supermarket and other stores to learn that the price of eggs in Kunming market has increased by an average of 1 yuan to 3 yuan per kilogram.

Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching every year. The mooncake manufacturers'stock-up leads to the shortage of market supply and demand, which will lead to a rise in the price of eggs. But this year, there are many reasons that affect the price of eggs, such as the reduction of production and the increase of feed price. "Since July 19, the average price of every 30 eggs has risen by 2 yuan, and scattered eggs have risen from 9-11 yuan per kilogram to 12 yuan per kilogram." The head of an egg franchise in Seal New Agricultural Market said that due to the recent weather, egg production declined and the retail price had to rise as the purchase price increased. At the farmer's market in Ciba, a peddler who specializes in collecting eggs from farmers and then selling them in the market said that because of the rising price of feed, farmers sell more expensive than usual. Starting in the middle and late May of this year, the global grain and oil futures showed a sharp upward trend. With the rising of grain prices, feed prices also rose. Mr. Huang, a farmer in Xundian, introduced that since July, the wholesale price of fresh eggs has been 235 yuan per piece (about 26 kilograms per piece), and 245 yuan per piece for native eggs, which is 45 yuan to 50 yuan higher than that in June, and 80 yuan higher than that in the same period last year. Mr. Huang said that the number of farmer households raising surrounding layers had decreased compared with previous years. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the market demand declined, but the egg production continued to decline, and the market supply was still tight.
