“Management”, Hoover
states, “is the key to success
in the poultry industry from
the egg in the incubator to
the egg on the supermarket
shelf or the dressed bird in
the'freezer. With our in
creasing population of today,
better management prac
tices are a necessity to meet
the growing demand for the
products.”
“The farmer is only the
start of the poultry industry.
Without the farmer there
would be no need of industry.
It is the farmer that directly
or indirectly gives jobs to 60
percent of the people in the
United States, but if it were
not for the manufacturer the
farmer’s work in most cases
would be in vain. Our
economy is based on com
plete cycle in which it takes
full cooperation from
everyone in order to be a
success in producing a
quality product.”
“The manufacturer has

the part of making the best of
the product the farmer
produced. It is up to the
manufacturer to prepare the
product so it is desirable to
the consumer. If a poor job is
done in manufacturing, it
will affect the farmer and
many other people. It is up to
the manufacturer to ex
periment to develop new
items to attract the con
sumer. The consumer is the
one that has the future of the
poultry industry in its hands.
If there is no demand for the
product, success is out of the
picture.”
