Government Farms Double Egg Prices After 21 Years

The Tobago House of Assembly (THA) Division of Food Security has announced a revision in egg prices at government farms from $7.00 per dozen to $15.00 per dozen, effective from March 2, 2026. The increase in price, which is the first since 2005, is due to rising production and feed costs, as well as an increase in the cost of essential farm inputs. The aim of the price adjustment is to align the prices with the current market conditions. In addition, the Division has stated its commitment to supporting local food production, ensuring fair access, and maintaining long-term sector sustainability.
