Delmarva Broiler
Fryer
. Oct. 11, 1989
Demand for ready to cook whole fryers
was generally fair. Supplies of 3 pound
and over sizes were fully adequate, lighter
weights were short of trade needs. In the
parts complex, the supplies of cutlets and
whole breasts were tight, legs and leg quar
ters were adequate, and wings were fully
adequate. Less than trucklot asking prices
were higher at 49-58 cents. Live supplies
were adequate. Avenge live weights were
generally heavy.. The slaughter schedules
for today were heavy, the trade sentiment
was unsettled.

Buying interest was active on barely
adequate to shod supplies of whole breasts
and trading prices were higher. Cutlets
were in balance to occasionally fully
adequate. Leg items were adequate and
clearing well at unchanged levels; howev
er, several traders note lighter needs on
upcoming orders as retail feature activity
winds down. Wings were fully adequate to
ample and clearances varied from slow to
moderate.

Prices were unchanged. The trade senti
ment ranged steady to'' fully steady.
Demand for cartoned eggs but retailers was
good. Movement of loose eggs into fast
food and restaurant accounts was fcrirk as
tourists continue to visit the area to view
the beautiful fall foliage. Most dealers
report buying additional supplies but floor
stocks remain in close balance with needs.

Acres Hog Update: Live hog
futures prices closed mixed today with set
tlements from 30 lower on the February to
40 higher on the spot October. Prosit month
support was tied to continued cash market
firmness and active bull spreading with
gains held in fheck by higher than
expected interior receipts. Ideas that
tomorrow's cash market would be steady
to lower due to packer resistance at current
levds served to temper gains. Profit-taking
was also featured today with additional
losses in the back months coming on active
belly/hog spreading. Bellies were sharply
higher on ideas that recent losses were
overdone. October live hogs settled 40
higher at $47.62 after trading in a range
from $47.25 to $47.80.
