The Manitoba price will remain at last month's level to cover higher provincial costs. Steadily declining feed prices are respon- sible for lower egg prices, CEMA explained. Much of the wheat intended for milling is now being sold for feed because of the damage caused by wet weather during the prairie harvest this fall. In addition, the United States has reaped a bumper harvest this year, depressing feed grain prices in Canada and around the world. With the one -cent drop, egg prices are now at a 28 -month low; reported CEMA. However since egg prices are set using a cost of production formula under a supply manage- ment scheme, egg producers are guaranteed a fair return. CEMA adjusts egg prices at the beginning of each month, The producer -run agency reports any changes in the price to the federal National Farm Products Marketing Council prior to its public announcement. Egg prices paid by consumers are set by wholesalers and retailers.
