The deputy head of the UAC said that prices for meat, eggs, sugar, oil, and dairy products could rise by up to 15% in winter. The price increase is due to higher feed costs and an expected increase in demand before the holidays.
In Ukraine, the winter period may be characterized by an increase in prices for meat, eggs, sugar, oil and dairy products of up to 15%.
This was announced by the deputy chairman of the All-Ukrainian Agrarian Council Denys Marchuk during a telethon, UNN reports .
As for egg prices, prices are much higher than last season, but this is characterized by higher prices for the cost of production in the context of preparing the feed base, because the price of feed corn, which is one of the components, accounts for about 70% of the price formation, including for chicken and eggs, it has risen significantly compared to last season
He believes that somewhere in the next few weeks there will indeed be a certain lull in the price position, but with demand due to the New Year's holidays, prices may also go up.
“In general, the winter period may be characterized by an increase in prices for meat, eggs, sugar, oil, and dairy products of up to 15%. Lard may also increase in price,” Marchuk said.
