The price of eggs, which has been in the doldrums for months, has finally picked up, heading straight to the four-letter word from the beginning of the year.
Whether in the spot or in futures, the egg market relive.
But as farmers cheer, the egg market seems to have come loose recently, and prices in some areas have started to fall again.
What is the song behind the fall?
Hu lihua is the sales manager of the xinghua breeding plant in zranton, Inner Mongolia.
On the morning of 8th, one of the eggs he ordered from jilin just arrived.
He told reporters that the wholesale price of the car had gone up a lot compared with the previous day.
Li-hua hu: mainly imported to the decrease in the number of eggs, another is the tourist season The catering enterprises, the demand for eggs rose sharply, egg prices are periodic zhalantun area.
And then we're going to go out and we're going to say that now we're going to have a stupid egg that's going to sell for 1.5 yuan and if it's a double yellow it's going to be $2, it's going to be anywhere between 3.5 and 4 dollars.
Egg prices have not been ideal this year until June.
Recently, due to the influence of high temperature and regional rainfall and other weather factors, the cost of circulation and storage rose, and the price of eggs rose sharply from the previous year, reaching 4 yuan per catty.
Shaanxi eggs dealers Egg prices this year in LAN samantha chang: changeable, often is up for a few days, and then dropped a few days, but on the whole, in 4 yuan the following, I remember is the cheapest in May, is about 2.3 yuan/kg, now there is rising, now is 4.2 yuan/kg, I think will continue to rise, I are afraid of their own deposit eggs quantity is too little, then will be in short supply.
Hu lihua is a baotou, who earlier opened a chicken farm in her hometown.
Twenty years ago, when he first went to sell eggs in zantun, he was attracted by the booming market in zantun, and he stayed to continue his old business, the egg wholesale business.
More than a dozen years ago, the wholesale price of eggs was more than a kilo, he told reporters.
At the beginning of this year, the wholesale price of eggs was over two kilograms.
Prices today are not the same as they used to be, but egg prices are not much different, so you can see how low they are.
Thanks to the second quarter, egg prices are rising.
A few days ago, he took the goods from baotou township, the wholesale price of eggs rose to about four yuan per catty.
Egg prices have risen by nearly 60% in a few months.
Hu lihua: at this stage, the price of the eggs is relatively stable.
Our approval is about 3 blocks, and the highest time is 3.2 yuan.
Because we are scale farming, we mainly rely on quantity, and the other is to maintain the owner to the house, our wholesale price is basically 2.9 to 3.1.
Compared with small farmers, it is cheaper to pay 1 to 2 cents per kilogram, which can reach 3 to 5 cents if the price is high.
The rise and fall in the price of eggs, many farmers say they have become accustomed to.
But the continuing downturn in the first half of this year has left farmers confused.
Wang aili, a marketing analyst at cheutron, said the price of eggs fluctuate most directly in relation to supply and demand.
Wang aili: after entering the summer, the national high temperature, the egg chicken entered the "resting period", the egg production rate generally decreased by 10% to 15%, so the production of eggs decreased significantly.
And because of the hot weather, there are no stocks in the production units or distribution links.
But since last year, the domestic environmental policy is perfect, the provinces have the livestock ban area, be restricted to a division, laying hens breeding industry in these areas is restricted, eliminated some unqualified farms.
At the same time, because of the long-term losses of the egg-breeding industry in the first half of this year, the cultivation units are generally reduced.
For the above three reasons, the supply of eggs has been greatly reduced and the supply side has pushed up the price of eggs.
Now that egg prices are starting to rise, many farmers seem to see spring.
According to wang aili, a marketing analyst at cheutron, the price of eggs will rise again as the National Day and Mid-Autumn festival approaches in the later stages.
Ai-li wang: in early October at the National Day and the Mid-Autumn festival, festival demand stimulus will strong demand pull in September 8 - eggs, so expect the price of eggs is given priority to with rose in August and September it or in high adjustment.
Because of the hot weather, it is not good for egg storage. It is suggested that the raider control the stock and reduce the storage time of the eggs.
After entering the autumn and winter festival, pay attention to the work of epidemic prevention, avoid the loss caused by the disease of the chickens.
