COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Egg prices have been dropping, and a Texas A&M University AgriLife Extension Service expert believes a continued downward trend should follow the Easter holiday.
Dr. David Anderson, AgriLife Extension economist and professor in the Texas A&M Department of Agricultural Economics, Bryan-College Station, said eggs typically reach a seasonal price peak around Easter, historically followed by price drops at grocery stores.
However, egg prices have already been on a downward trend in recent months. Wholesale prices fell from $8.51 to $3.84, or 55 percent, between March 1 and March 29, Anderson. . .
