Y aura-t-il du foie gras à Noël ?
Foie gras will indeed be present on the end-of-year holiday tables.
Its production increased by 20% in France in 2023, after a catastrophic year 2022 marked by massive slaughters of ducks linked to avian flu.
But despite this recovery, supply remains limited and prices are expected to rise. Consumers are therefore invited not to delay in purchasing their products for the end of the holiday season. of year.
This price increase is explained by higher production costs and the cost of vaccinating ducks. In addition, the export of foie gras has suffered due to the mistrust of certain countries.
But if production resumed in 2023 (+20% compared to 2022), it remains far below that observed ten years ago: 18,600 tonnes in 2013, compared to 9,800 this year.
We will therefore have to expect reduced stocks.
“Better to start early.”
