National
Egg Market
Tuaaday, January 5, 1993
NATIONAL EGG MARKET - AT A
GLANCE: Prices were unchanged to lower
in the Northeast and Midwest, unchanged
elsewhere. The market tone continued
unsettled, and was steady at best with post
holiday caution. Demand covered the full
range, and was generally fair to fairly
good. Retail restocking, and firsl-of-the
month demand were the most active. Sup
plies were adequate to fully adequate with
the large sizes die most available. Breakers
received adequate shell eggs, and remained
unagressive as finished product demand
continued to be sluggish. Live hen offer
ings were at least adequate, and most
plants worked capacity schedules from
previous bookings; the undertone was
steady at best.
