Dutch egg prices have been trending down for several weeks, which is unusual because they normally rise in October. The NOP reference price for white free-range eggs (62/63 g) fell 0.07 euro in week 46 to 11.95 euro per 100 eggs, and brown free-range eggs fell 0.04 euro to 13.00 euro per 100.
The consumer egg market remains stable.
Lower autumn egg prices weaken margins for Dutch laying hen farmers after the record prices of last spring, and they signal ample supply. Price declines are gradual and limited, so the effect on feed demand is modest.
