The recent resurgence of bird flu has significantly driven up egg prices globally, impacting consumers and industries alike. The highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has ravaged poultry facilities, leading to massive hen fatalities and reduced egg production. The United States has been particularly hard-hit, with millions of egg-laying chickens dying in recent months. This has caused egg prices to skyrocket, with consumers facing historically high costs. Other countries, including Mexico, Japan, and Indonesia, have also experienced price increases due to bird flu and additional factors such as heatwaves and increased demand for eggs as a more cost-effective alternative to meat.
