Eggs have risen in price by up to 10 stotinki in just one month, according to data from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. The most serious jump was registered in the week from October 25 to November 1.
In many stores in our country, eggs of the standard size M already cost 30 stotinki per piece, and eggs of size L reach up to 40 stotinki per piece.
Eggs at low prices can be found at the Cooperative Market in Varna, where the smallest of them you can buy for 26 stotinki per piece, reports the newspaper Trud.
With as much as 6 stotinki per number, the eggs arrived in Burgas last week. Size L and XL are now sold up to 35 cents per number in wholesale markets.
The rise in the price of eggs in the districts of Sliven, Smolyan and Blagoevgrad was also shocking, where they jumped from 19 stotinki per piece to 30 stotinki per piece.
The reasons for the drastic rise in values are complex, but domestic producers say the fipronil scandal has played a major role in the current price situation. Although this happened at the end of September, the real effect is being felt now.
Several outbreaks of bird flu have been detected in Europe in the last month, which has contributed to higher levels.
The situation on the Bulgarian market is such that if 200-300 thousand hens drop out of it, this leads to shocks. Prices, of course, are distorted by the big chains that dictate the rules, explains Dimitar Belorechkov, chairman of the Union of Poultry Breeders in Bulgaria.
According to his forecasts, the trend with high egg prices will continue until the New Year, after which their values will fall.
