# Egg Prices Ease, Farmers Prepare for Spring Migration | Farm Bureau Intel Markets | American Farm Bureau Federation

> The American Farm Bureau reports egg prices down about 57% from last year's highs as production recovers from HPAI. HPAI losses in January and February 2026 were 15.5 million birds, 56% fewer than the same period in 2025, and detections slowed in March. USDA is urging biosecurity as spring migration raises HPAI risk.

## Why it matters

Lower HPAI losses and flock rebuilding support stable egg supply, but spring migration raises the risk of renewed outbreaks that could tighten supply again.
