The main reason for the price drop is the waning consumer interest in eggs during the summer months, leading to an oversupply on the market. Faced with a buildup of inventory, producers are forced to reduce prices to avoid disposal costs.
The Chita poultry farm is also taking steps to reduce prices, offering customers a dozen eggs at a purchase price of just 42 rubles, which is significantly lower than retail prices in other regions of the country. This creates a competitive advantage for local producers and helps them maintain their market position.
Falling egg prices can have both positive and negative consequences. For consumers, this means better value for money, but continued price declines can negatively impact producers' finances, as they risk losses if the selling price fails to cover production costs.
State support , implemented within the framework of the national project "Efficient and Competitive Economy", is aimed at creating conditions for the sustainable development of the agro-industrial complex, including financial assistance and programs to support local producers.
Thus, the decline in egg prices in the Zabaikalsky Krai is temporary, driven by seasonal demand. However, it is important to closely monitor further developments to ensure a balance between consumer affordability and business sustainability for producers.
