It is well known that cost of feed is the major cost of egg production. Feed prices have been on the rise for more than 1 year. Among the reasons for the rising feed prices are disappointing harvest related to climate change (drought, fires, and severe flooding) but also related to a higher demand of raw materials because of the recovery of the global demand for animal protein (declined due to COVID-19) and an increasing demand of feed related to the recovering from African Swine fever.
