According to a posting in the February 20^th USAPEEC Monday Line, egg prices in Mexico are 40 percent higher than during late January 2022.  The Agricultural Markets Consulting Group documented a price of $2.15 per dozen for white eggs at retail and $2.28 per dozen for brown eggs during the first week of February 2022.  The increase cannot be attributed to HPAI although 5.6 million hens have been depleted in four states but representing less than four percent of the national flock estimated at 165 million.  Egg consumption in Mexico will attain 370 per capita in 2023.
