Egg Prices Plummet After Trump Admin Implements 5-Point Plan

The price of eggs has fallen tremendously since President Donald Trump stepped back into the White House and the media has ignored it.

On February 21 the average wholesale price for a dozen eggs in the United States was $8.15, but one month later the average price has crated by 63 percent to around $3, Axios reported.

United States Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins sent a press release to The Daily Wire in which she spoke about how the media ignored the price increase when former President Joe Biden was in the White House but focused it on it immediately after President Trump was inaugurated.

“Under Joe Biden, egg prices increased 237% — we never heard anyone in the mainstream media talk about it,” she said. “But the day that Trump gets elected, January 20 — all of a sudden it’s his fault that egg prices have increased 237%.”

“About a week after I was sworn in, we launched a very significant five-point plan,” Rollins outlined. “It included deregulation to bring costs down for our chicken farmers, it included more quickly repopulating those populations affected by the avian bird flu, it included biosecurity measures, it included importing eggs from other countries for the short-term to get those prices down … and then the fifth point was significant longterm research on therapeutics, vaccines, culling methods, etc,” she said.

The prices are starting to also get lowered for retail sales.

“It was only four weeks ago that we were at the highest price the market had ever seen,” Brian Moscogiuri, a global trade strategist at Eggs Unlimited, said to Axios. “So it just takes time for those lower prices to be passed along.”

“There’s usually (at least) a two-to-three-week lag between wholesale and retail pricing, and since the market only started correcting last Monday, shoppers haven’t seen the impact of these lower prices at the grocery store just yet,” Karyn Rispoli, managing editor for eggs in the Americas for price-reporting service Expana, said.
