Pa. Poultrymen
Bucking National
Downward Trend
Pennsylvania poultry
producers continue to increase
their weekly production in a
trend that runs counter to data
from the other 20 leading broiler
producing states, according to
the Crop Reporting Service.
In the last full report-week in
November, the placement of day
old broiler chicks was 1,308,000.
Although this is a modest one
percent decline from the
preceding week it is 17 percent
ahead of the same week in 1972.
Similarly, the average for the
past 10 weeks is 17 percent ahead
of the corresponding period a
year earlier.
Across the nation, broiler
placements for the same week
were 57,139,000 but the 10 week
average, nationally, is trailing
the same 10 weeks, last year, by
one percent.
In 1972, Pennsylvania ranked
only 14th among the states active
in broiler production.
