Egg Market
Wednesday, January 29, 1992
NATIONAL EGG MARKET - AT A
GLANCE: Prices were unchanged. The
market tone was steady to firm in the
South, and steady elsewhere. Retail spe
cials continued to provide the best demand,
and overall movement ranged light to fair
ly good, mostly moderate. Supplies were
short to adequate in the South, and adequ
ate in all other regions. Southern breakers
continued to seek breaking stock with a
willingness to pay premium prices, while
the rest of the breakers usually met needs
with regularly committed shell eggs. Live
hen demand continued to improve in the
South and East at offerings decreased, and
the Midwest undertone was steady.
