David Anderson, Ph.D., AgriLife Extension economist, College Station, said production trends and higher wholesale prices could translate into higher retail prices through the holidays. Turkey sales typically peak leading into Thanks- giving through Dec. 31 to feed consumer demand for traditional holiday meals, including whole birds, he said. But poor market conditions in recent years have caused producers to adjust to consumer trends with fewer birds and smaller storage supplies. Turkey prices in 2019 Consumers looking for their traditional whole turkeys for holiday meals may see higher prices at grocery stores this year. Our economist said they can avoid higher prices by shopping around for a deal. As of September, whole bird turkey cold storage levels were down 5% compared to a year ago, accord- ing to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. A deeper look into the numbers showed cold storage of hens, which are smaller birds, were up 9.5% compared to toms, which were down 15.5%. “I don’t expect a shortage of holiday turkeys,” he said. “But lower supplies might result in higher prices at stores if demand is there.” Wholesale whole turkey prices are already higher compared to last year – 96 cents per pound compared to 80 cents this time last year, Anderson said. Howev- er, consumers are still getting a bang for their buck as prices are still 20% below the five-year average. Price-conscious consumers should “The thought is that if they give up a little on season tables. shop around for holiday turkeys turkeys, they can get you into the store in the hopes “I have no hard evidence, but just what I see and you buy your dressing ingredients and eggs and but- But Anderson said consumers may be able to ter and sweet potatoes and marshmallows and all the hear, and it’s that people still want that Thanksgiv- avoid higher prices on whole turkeys at grocery reg- other goodies there to make up for it,” he said. ing turkey, but I think they’re going with other tra- isters by shopping around.
