The price of supervised eggs in Israel will increase by approximately 2.1% starting November 1, 2026, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security announced. The maximum price for a 12-egg carton will rise by 27 to 33 agorot, depending on the egg size. A carton of 12 medium (M) eggs will cost up to 13.40 shekels, an increase from the current 13.13 shekels. Large (L) eggs will go from 14.24 to 14.54 shekels per carton, and extra-large (XL) eggs will increase from 15.48 to 15.81 shekels. According to the ministry, this price hike is attributed to changes in production and marketing costs, including feed for laying hens, wages, energy, and packaging. This adjustment is scheduled to take effect one year after the previous price increase, as part of an automatic mechanism implemented in 2023 that aligns prices with industry cost fluctuations.
