Delmarva Poultry
Thursday, January 24
Report Supplied by USDA
Market Comment: Ready to
cook movement is generally fair to
good. Interest on parts vary but is
expected to fall more in line with
needs as plants catch up and items
from other production areas fill
voids. Some cautiousness exists as
dealers are unsure of demand for
the last week of the month. Live
supplies are fully adequate with
sizes usually in a desirable range.
Undertone steady.
Today’s L.T.L. asking prices are
unchanged to higher on U.S. Grade
A at 52-58 cents.

fryers in Delmarva (000).
