Latest report shows reduced egg production. Also, reduced wholesale prices... but we're still not where we need to be

Egg market report
The USDA’s Egg Markets Overview report issued Aug. 8, stated the wholesale prices for national trading of truck lot quantities of graded, loose, white large shell eggs decreased 46 cents to $2.46 per dozen. In the major Midwest production region, wholesale prices for large, white shell eggs delivered to warehouses decreased 9 cents to $3.50 per dozen with a weak overtone noted.
Shell egg demand continues to struggle into early August, as the report noted consumers have yet to fully adjust to current retail price levels and while grocers have been offering some relatively attractive price levels with advertising, the week-to-week consistency has been lacking leading to an “in-and-out” buying pattern by consumers. The report does expect demand to increase as a new school year approaches.
