Australian egg farmers are struggling to meet demand, with more than 20 million birds in the national laying flock. Bird flu, floods and fires have disrupted eastern supply, leaving Western Australia short since it imports about a quarter of its eggs.
Tight Australian egg supply supports local egg prices and modestly lifts demand for feed grains from producers expanding flocks, though the effect on world grain prices is small.
