N.E. Chicken Parts
July 24, 1991
Buying interest was sluggish and ample
offerings of most parts were difficult to
place. Boneless skinless breast! were
ample. Spot trading on whole breasts was
noted at low at 74 cents; supplies of white
not as readily available as yellow. Legs, leg
quarters and drums were traded at sharp
discounts in some instances to stimulate
lagging movement. Wing were plentiful;
however, trading levels generally held
steady.
