In the last few days, eggs and their derivatives have risen in price by up to 30 percent in some places. Such a jump in such a short time is a shock to the market. However, there is a reason for what is happening and it is well-founded.
In recent weeks, a complex of factors has led to an unprecedented rise in the price of eggs at this time of year. These are the crisis with the poisonous substance fipronil, bird flu and increased exports.
In just a few days, there were places in the country where the value of products jumped by a shocking 30 percent. At the wholesale price in just one week, eggs have increased in value by nearly 12 percent.
The most affected are Blagoevgrad and Kyustendil, where the increase is most serious. The new prices of eggs are an unpleasant surprise for both consumers and sellers.
The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Forestry announced the latest data today. According to them, the lowest reported retail price in the last week is in Smolyan - 21 stotinki, and the highest - 32 stotinki in Razgrad.
The average price of an egg size L is 30 stotinki, and the lowest is in Smolyan - 22 stotinki. The biggest jump compared to the previous week was reported in Blagoevgrad and Kyustendil - by 22.2 percent.
Fortunately, there is light in the tunnel. The upward trend is expected to stop within two months at the latest.
