Dl4—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 25,1981 UNIVERSITY PARK - The number of turkeys grown on Pennsylvania farms ranges from one to a million or more per season. That’s a lot of white and dark meat. It takes about six months to grow a flock of finished market turkeys and 14 to 16 weeks to grow them to the turkey broiler age. “With costs of production up, it pays producers to grow, finish, and market turkeys young,” says Herbert C. Jordan, associate professor, poultry science, at Penn State. 140 students to compete in Little International UNIVERSITY PARK Some 140 students will compete in the 64th Little International Livestock Exposition to be held April 25 at Penn State.
