Today, we return to our special 'Scramble' format, where some of our most trusted experts break down some of the most pressing issues facing the egg industry today.
First up, Dr. Kay Russo joins us to talk about the current situation with Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, and why the number of outbreaks has declined so dramatically in recent months. We also get into the HPAI situation in the dairy industry, the risk of spillover into nearby poultry operations and why the presence of the disease in cattle could turn the disease into a year-round concern for producers. And then lastly, we get into the ongoing push to get vaccines into birds, and what progress has been made in breaking the political deadlock surrounding the export market.
Second, we have Brian Moscogiuri discussing what's happened to the egg market as we've seen HPAI subside. Brian discusses recent trends in egg prices, and what might happen as production ramps back up. He also explains how high prices have led to abnormally sluggish Easter sales, and why he's hopeful that strong organic demand will lead to a rebound in the market when kids go back to school in the fall.
