Report supplied by USDA
Market Comment: Demand for
ready to cook whole birds was
slightly improved in some quarters

struggle to clear in most quarters.
Live supplies were moderate.
Slaughter schedules were
moderately heavy and weights
were in a wide range. Undertone
was about steady.
Today’s L.T.L. asking prices
were unchanged on U.S. Grade A
at .47-.5S cents, but some sales
were noted at .4S-.47 cents in an
effort to keep product clearing.

fryers in Delmarva (000).
