The market is quiet (one comment it is like February) but stable and looks like it is going to get very interesting, speaking to our Continental friends they tell us that prices are firming up, Holland and Germany supplies are tight, France and Portugal virtually nothing available, this means probably less imported eggs available and they will be a more realistic price.
This is all linked to the AI problems in the USA, the attached article gives some idea of the scale of the problem, the Americans have developed vast production complexes with cheap production costs linked to their cheaper grain, the EU has been most concerned of the risk of product particularly from the USA coming in and decimating our industry, as because of our higher welfare standards our cost of production is dearer and only the EU protective import tariff barriers are our protection, which were up for negotiation under the World Free Trade negotiations.
