The winner of the #NEPAwards Egg Producer of the Year accolade is Lower Yardro Poultry! Congratulations to the Lower Yardro team and thanks to @ForFarmers for sponsoring this award.
🥚 In short: 🥚
While eggs have gone up over 45p/dozen on the supermarket shelf, just 10p/dozen has reached the farmer.
Bird Flu at the moment is an easy excuse for supermarkets to make more money, the cost of production is the real issue for shortages on shelves…
Egg section in @Tesco Ashford. No doubt they & @the_brc will blame bird flu, the real reason is that they have destroyed all value in the supply chain & producers have had enough. We need a new fair & equitable food system. Consumers need farmers they don’t need supermarkets…..
