Egg prices in Jeonbuk Province have fallen 19.6% from their July peak, with a 30-egg special grade averaging 7,126 won on November 4, though still above last year's November level. South Korea confirmed its first highly pathogenic avian influenza case of the 2026-27 winter season at a layer farm with about 91,000 birds in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi Province, raising supply concerns.
Culling of infected layer flocks reduces laying capacity and can push egg prices up again if the outbreak spreads, though the immediate impact on feed demand is limited to Korean layer operations. Feed buyers should watch for further outbreaks in Korea's layer sector.
