PARTS. FEDERAL-STATE: Supplies of
boneless skinless breasts were adequate for
the light buying interest. Most trades were
at unchanged prices; however, the trade
sentiment was barely steady. Line run
breasts were available but buyers were
cautious and selective. Fill-in trading was
at slight discounts to normal terms. Yellow
skin leg quarters ranged fully adequate to
burdensome, offered at highly competitive
prices and slow to clear. Wings were at
least adequate and the undertone was bare
ly steady.
