Notes:
5 pages., Online from FMI Foundation., This report summarizes findings of an online survey distributed to 2,000 U.S. egg/chicken consumers with demographics representing the U.S. population. Findings indicated that "price is a significant driver for the majority of consumers, that consumer response is sensitive to information provided about cage-free production practices, and that willingness-to-pay for cage-free eggs changes in the presence of other label attributes."
Revealed evidence that most of the observed change in egg demand between 1987 and 1995 could be explaind b y dietary cholesterol concerns. Advertising efforts resulted in net benefits to egg producers.
