Details of a study of Penn
sylvania’s broiler industry were
released by PennAg Industries
Association, a state-wide trade
association of agribusiness firms
in Pennsylvania The Association
sponsored the survey to show the
contribution the broiler industry
has made to the rural economics
of Pennsylvania It is unique
since it considers the entire in
dustry as a whole - including
hatcheries, growers, feed and
service as well as processors of
the meat.
According to Donald W Parke,
PennAg Executive vice
president, Pennsylvania is not
known as a major broiler
producing area, as it ranks 12th
in the nation However, it
produces some $6O million worth
of raw chicken annually which is
further increased in value by
processors who market in
ternationally tray packs,
precooked, pre-packaged and
convenience foods using chicken
as a major ingredient.

Broilers, Key
broilers dressed by Pennsylvania
processors 39.3 million (55 per
cent) were raised within the
state. Last year 62.7 million (or 80
percent) of the 78.5 million birds
processed were produced by
Pennsylvania growers
The broiler industry in this
state has 571 producer-families
(farm families who may sup
plement other farming activities
with raising broilers as a cash
crop) who actually raise the birds
and in the process add $5.6
million to their annual income.
Feed mills that produce the 281
thousand tons of feed required by
62 7 million broilers pay $3.3
million in salaries to their 391
employees. The 3,900 processing
employees received wages of
$22 1 million for their efforts in
making 199.9 million pounds of
wholesome chicken available to
consumers last year. The study
did not solve the mystery of
which came first - the chicken or
the egg - but it does reveal that

“Broilers in Pennsylvania is a

proven itself to be a rather
