In this episode of Unplucked, PSA Executive Director Andy Vance talks with Brian Earnest, Lead Animal Protein Economist at CoBank, to unpack the volatile state of the egg market. From the lasting impacts of high path avian influenza to the ripple effects of corporate cage-free egg commitments, Brian brings clarity to why egg prices spiked and what’s driving continued market pressure. The discussion dives into consumer behavior, protein value comparisons, and the broader protein landscape, including potential turkey shortages and the resilience of beef demand. Brian also explores biosecurity challenges, the impact of cage-free transitions, and the opportunities and risks ahead for poultry and other animal protein sectors. It’s a deep economic dive into the forces reshaping how we produce and price our most essential proteins.
