[Egg prices continue to run at high levels in August, and there is limited room for egg prices to continue to rise sharply] September 10th, since this summer, egg prices across the country have continued to run at high levels - rising in June, pulling back in July, and rising again in August. "In late August, egg prices have continued to fall from the year's high, but overall they are still running at a high level." said Zhu Ning, an associate researcher at the Institute of Agricultural Economics and Development of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. In the opinion of experts, this round of rising egg prices is the result of the joint action of the consumer side and the supply side. August is the traditional peak season for egg consumption, and the supply side is in a "rest period" coupled with production capacity reductions. Liu Tong, manager of the Statistics Department of Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Products Wholesale Market, said that the current egg price is already at a high level, and the resistance to high prices in the terminal market is getting stronger. With the gradual increase of new laying hens and the loosening of supply, the space for egg prices to continue to rise sharply is limited. (Economic Daily)
