The commodity purchase program, under the USDA ad ministration of Connor Kennett, has announced purchases of egg mix which require nearly 600,000 cases of eggs for the June-July period alone. “In February and March, all the signs pointed to disaster loss of egg export sales, increased bird productivity, poor retail demand, to mention a few,” state Pope. “Then along came the grain PIK program, adding as much as 7 ...When/!!!

Pope warned, however, that “while the Task Force Committee was highly successful, what they did was buy time to allow in dividual producers to adjust supplies. The major burden of assuming the responsibility for making that adjustment is now on the industry.” “We are indebted to the Task Force members and USDA for being responsive, sensitive, and for moving in such haste on what could have meant economic bankruptcy for the egg sector of agriculture,’’ Pope said.
