The USDA says its bird flu strategy has helped bring down egg prices, with wholesale egg prices down 64% and retail prices down 27% from their earlier peak. The department has completed 948 voluntary on-farm biosecurity assessments and is covering up to 75% of the cost of priority improvements.
USDA is urging farmers to complete assessments before a potentially challenging fall.
Stronger biosecurity lowers the risk of renewed layer losses, which keeps egg supply and layer feed demand steadier, though a fall outbreak would be a renewed risk to feed demand.
