Most turkeys eaten at Thanksgiving are harvested throughout the year and frozen, which is one reason why the virus’ eight-month-long spread has had such an impact. 22, so skywatchers will still have a chance to see the Orionids after the peak.

With 2022 turkey production estimated to be off more than 4% compared with 2021, whole 8- to 16-pound wholesale prices are expected to rise 23% higher than last year. The Orionids radiate outward from the constellation Orion the Hunter — specifically a point near Orion&#39;s sword, close to the large red star, Betelgeuse — but you don&#39;t need to know that point&#39;s location to see the meteors.

Meat has been one of the categories “most severely impacted by inflation,” said Carman Allison, a vice president at NielsenIQ. In the last year, meat prices are up an average of 12%, while turkey prices have increased even more—14%. A worker tests a sample for avian flu, a highly transmissible virus that has killed about 44 million birds.

Scott Olson/Getty Images At last year’s Thanksgiving, fresh turkey prices were 10% more expensive compared with 2020, and as a result, turkey sales per pound declined by 6%. “With prices continuing to rise and the threat of a consumer recession looming, we can expect a similar decline over this holiday season,” Allison said.

“Shoppers might buy their turkey earlier if it’s on sale or seek out stores with the lowest prices. Some shoppers will also look for more affordable alternatives, such as chicken or a turkey breast, rather than the whole turkey.” On Hormel’s September 1 earnings call, Chief Financial Officer Jacinth Smiley said avian flu will limit Jennie-O’s supply for Thanksgiving by as much as 30% compared with last year. “Lower industry-wide turkey supplies are expected to keep prices higher near-term,” Smiley said.

Within the industry, Butterball accounts for less than 3% of the total impact. The main reason is geography. Jennie-O has been hit harder than Butterball partly because most of Jennie-O’s production is based in Minnesota, which is in the middle of a wild bird migratory fly zone.

Back then, the virus burned off in the summer and didn’t come back in the fall, so the impacts on Thanksgiving and holiday birds were limited. This year, after a short respite from major outbreaks earlier this summer, cases came roaring back. About 3 million birds, including egg-layers and chickens, have been infected and killed so far in September alone.

Usually, infected birds are callously euthanized by turning off the airflow in the houses in which thousands live crammed together, cranking up the heat and letting the birds suffocate. More turkeys have contracted avian flu than broiler chickens, partly because they take longer to raise and so have more time to contract the virus. “That disease has really wreaked havoc on turkey supplies.” –Walter Kunisch, who tracks the turkey market for HTS Commodities Shoppers who want a certain type of turkey should buy early, experts say.

One solution for Thanksgiving cooks could be to switch main courses. While prices for meat in general are up, turkey’s 14% increase is greater than the rise in spiralized ham, which is 10%. If celebrants are dead set on the traditional bird, however, the American Turkey Federation said high prices will be softened by discounts that grocers will use to attract holiday shoppers, even if the retailers take a loss on turkey sales.
