This episode breaks down how avian influenza is shaping the global egg market as winter approaches. Europe faces tightening supply, strong retail demand for free-range and organic eggs, and rising energy needs — all keeping prices firmly supported. In the U-S, outbreaks centered in Indiana push shell egg prices higher, while holiday buying patterns and cautious breakers create mixed signals for liquids and powders. With feed costs relatively stable, disease pressure and cold weather remain the key drivers to watch on both sides of the Atlantic.For the full market analysis and real-time egg prices and forecasts, go to vespertool.com.

This episode breaks down Vesper’s latest global egg market update from Ralitsa Videnova, focusing on how widespread HPAI outbreaks and strict housing measures are tightening European supply, lifting prices, and increasing reliance on imports from Ukraine and potentially Brazil under the pending EU Mercosur deal. It also reviews the US market, where the absence of new HPAI cases has stabilized supply, but wholesale prices have jumped as retailers restock ahead of Thanksgiving while processors lean on imported eggs and cut dried egg output. Finally, it explores the feed backdrop, with soybean and corn markets turning firmer again, European grain harvests cushioning producers’ costs, and lingering soybean trade risks that could stir more volatility in the months ahead.For the full market analysis and real-time egg prices and forecasts, go to vespertool.com.

This autumn will not be as easy as some had hoped it would be. In Europe, HPAI has returned to the Northern parts with outbreaks in the Netherlands and Denmark after months of calm, signaling the start of the traditional winter risk period just as prices follow their typical seasonal upward trajectory. The situation is further complicated by Ukrainian imports, which have become essential for industrial users. Meanwhile, the US market presents a stark contrast with wholesale prices plummeting to decade lows but all is at risk with new HPAI cases occurring weekly. Both regions are preparing for an uphill battle with disease while adapting to longer-term shifts in production systems.For the full market analysis and real-time egg prices and forecasts, go to vespertool.com.
