The Rosptitsesoyuz named two reasons for the increase in the cost of folk products, and in stores everything is “blamed” on laying hens. Posting in CHAT: RussiaAlmost the most important “tomorrow” of Russians – eggs – began to “bite”. It's not about the mutants, it's about the price. In recent days, this popular product has risen sharply in price. For example, if previously a dozen could be bought for 70 to 80 rubles, now the price has exceeded 100 rubles. The government sounded the alarm and instructed departments to look into the situation. The cost of a dozen chicken eggs has already exceeded 150 rubles, and this is not the limit. It's okay if it's expensive, but it's there. In the markets of Crimea, for example, this is the most scarce product. “There are few of them. They don’t lay, they don’t lay well,” shop assistants admitted to Ren TV. Food prices have risen in several regions of Russia. In particular, despite the fact that there are several operating poultry farms in the Urals, this does not affect the price of eggs in any way - they are rising, just like everywhere else. A tray can be bought for 100 rubles or more, whereas a couple of months ago the price tag indicated 80 rubles. Residents of Bashkiria noticed that egg prices rose by more than 5 percent in a week. Experts attribute the growth to high demand for the product. The fact is that prices for meat, including chicken, have risen. Buyers who cannot always afford to buy meat try to compensate for the protein source with eggs. Demand has increased, but production has not. In addition, some experts attribute the rise in prices to bird flu, which deprived factories of thousands of laying hens. It will not be possible to make up for losses quickly.The general director of the Rosptitsesoyuz association, Galina Bobyleva, named the “culprits” - seasonality and increased demand. “Taking into account the fact that other types of products are rising in price today, eggs and chicken are, in fact, becoming one of the few sources of animal protein that is available to the population on an ongoing basis, and as demand grows, so do prices,” she explained to the Parliamentary Gazeta " Bobyleva. https://bloknot.ru/obshhestvo/zolotaya-yaishenka-v-rossii-vzvintili-tseny-na-yajtsa-fas-v-dele-1198906.htmlhttps://bloknot.ru/obshhestvo/zolotaya-yaishenka-v-rossii-vzvintili-tseny-na-yajtsa-fas-v-dele-1198906.html Original source Source link
