(VitalNews.org) – In a major success for the Trump administration, egg prices in the U.S. have plummeted since late February 2025, dropping nearly two dollars per dozen.

This comes as a relief to consumers after years of surging costs driven by inflation and avian influenza.
Since the Trump administration declared its strategic plan on February 26, fears over spiraling egg prices have begun to dissipate.
The drop from an all-time high of $8.17 per dozen in March 2025 to the current rates is notable.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture reports that egg prices are now down nationwide, providing significant benefit to American households.
The Trump administration’s strategy is credited with this price stabilization.
Led by Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, efforts included a $1 billion commitment to lower egg prices while combating the bird flu.
Rollins cited that importing 100 million eggs, subsidizing biosecurity measures, and exploring vaccines were key to these achievements.
Critics have pondered whether the administration’s handling of previous outbreaks exacerbated the problem, Newsweek reports.
Others point out that President Trump himself admitted, “hard to bring things down once they’re up,” highlighting the complexities of navigating such economic challenges alongside inflation and regulatory constraints.
The dramatic price drop aligns with Trump’s mission to rectify previous market burdens.
Conservatives argue that former President Biden’s tenure had left challenges for the current administration.
Meanwhile, conservatives like Charlie Kirk have continued to underscore this sentiment.
Egg prices, which soared by more than 53% from January 2024 to recent highs, have historically peaked during Easter due to increased demand.
While seasonal factors may cause minor fluctuations, the current trends reassure consumers wary of inflated costs.
“This is always the highest price for eggs,” said Rollins, signaling the typical fluctuations expected, especially around Easter.
As consumers and political observers continue to monitor these price trends, the administration remains confident in its economic strategies.
The broader agricultural community is hopeful for stabilization, signaling an end to drastic market fluctuations.
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins told reporters Tuesday that despite average egg prices lowering by $1.85, the cost for a dozen is expected to "inch back up" as Easter approaches.
