Consumers should expect a corresponding decline in the retail egg prices, except in cases when eggs have been on special. Producers prices will fall by 5-7 cents a dozen depending depending on the province. The producer producer price is based on a Cost of Production formula and is adjusted on a provincial provincial basis to allow for actual production cost differences. The price is also adjusted to reflect seasonal variations in demand under CEMA's new seasonal pricing policy. "Seasonal pricing accounts accounts for the current drop", according to CEMA General Manager Gerry Gartner. "Demand for eggs always slows in the period after Easter and it is therefore appropriate appropriate that prices should fall." he explained. Seasonal pricing is an example example of CEMA's commitment commitment to market responsiveness. responsiveness.
