Price Of Major Food Commodity Rapidly Drops After Trump Plan Implemented

Egg prices have fallen sharply since President Donald Trump took office in January and launched a five-point plan aimed at addressing the main drivers of the previous surge. According to an Axios report on Friday, the average wholesale price for a dozen large eggs has dropped 63% since last month, now hovering around $3. Back on February 21, that average was $8.15.

In a press release sent to The Daily Wire, the White House attributed the drop in egg prices to its recent efforts to combat avian flu and rebuild the nation’s chicken supply. U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins outlined the administration’s five-point plan during an appearance on Fox News earlier this week. “Under Joe Biden, egg prices increased 237% — we never heard anyone in the mainstream media talk about it,” Rollins began. “But the day that Trump gets elected, January 20 — all of a sudden it’s his fault that egg prices have increased 237%.”

Rollins noted further that Trump immediately tasked her to come up with a plan to lower egg prices after she was confirmed. “About a week after I was sworn in, we launched a very significant five-point-plan,” Rollins explained. “It included deregulation to bring costs down for our chicken farmers, it included more quickly repopulating those populations affected by the avian bird flu, it included biosecurity measures, it included importing eggs from other countries for the short-term to get those prices down … and then the fifth point was significant longterm research on therapeutics, vaccines, culling methods, etc.”

The secretary added that the market almost immediately reacted when they implemented the plan a month ago. “The market will react to big, bold plans and being fearless and trying to fix things in a major way, and that’s what we’re working to do,” Rollins said.

New federal data indicate that lower energy prices helped ease inflation in February, a finding that was touted by the White House as a direct result of Trump’s economic policies. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Wednesday that inflation increased by only 0.2% last month, contributing to a 2.8% rise over the past year. This marks a drop from January’s annual inflation rate of 3%.

The decline was partly driven by falling energy prices—a key campaign promise of Trump—although it remains unclear whether this trend will continue. The BLS energy index fell by an average of 0.2% over the past twelve months, according to the latest data. “The index for shelter rose 0.3% in February, accounting for nearly half of the monthly all items increase,” BLS said. “The shelter increase was partially offset by a 4% decrease in the index for airline fares and a 1% decline in the index for gasoline. Despite the decrease in the gasoline index, the energy index rose 0.2% over the month as the indexes for electricity and natural gas increased.
