（作者：赵星，卓创资讯分析师） （文章来源：新华财经） 回顾2025年下半年，鸡蛋价格持续在3.00元／斤上下徘徊，截至11月13日，主产区鸡蛋均价3.08元／ 斤，而单斤鸡蛋饲料成本却达到了3.00元，养殖端盈利状况持续欠佳。并且截至11月13日，下半年单斤 鸡蛋的平均利润为-0.12元，而进入11月以后，亏损进一步加重，单斤鸡蛋利润降至-0.20元，较10月平 均水平减少0.03元。利润的持续下滑，导致企业现金流与生存空间持续挤压，四季度迎来了老母鸡淘汰 加速的基本面现状。 根据目前市场的情况来看，卓创资讯预计这种淘汰加速的情况或将有所维持。老母鸡出栏量的持续增 加，将直接导致在产蛋鸡存栏量的逐步下降。根据前期补栏数据及当前老母鸡淘汰现状预计，从2025年 11月开始，在产蛋鸡存栏量将呈现持续下降态势，并于2026年12月份达到明显的最低点，预计在12.10 亿只左右。当供给端收缩到一定程度，而消费需求保持相对稳定时，市场供需关系将发生根本性扭转。 届时，目前蛋价和老母鸡价格的弱势态势将得到缓解。 综合来看，后市鸡蛋及老母鸡价格或将经历"延续低位运行"后，进入"小幅反弹"的通道，根据鸡蛋需求 的季节性波动 ...

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core View of the Report - Macroscopically, the expected end of the US government "shutdown" has led to a recovery in market risk appetite, providing some support for commodity prices. Industrially, the de - stocking of the five major steel products continued, but the slowdown in the decline of rebar inventory and the increase in hot - rolled coil inventory, along with the continuous decline in hot metal, have put pressure on steel prices. Currently, steel prices are near previous lows, and it is expected that the downward space is limited, with short - term low - level fluctuations. Medium - term, pay attention to new macro - driving factors from mid - November to December [3]. Summary According to the Directory 1.
