Trucklot buying interest was slow and
disappointing. Supplies of boneless skin
less breasts for retail needs ranged adequ
ate to fully adequate, portion controlled
product was at least adequate. Buyers were
selective and limited purchases to immedi
ate needs. Line run breasts were irregularly
distributed but were in close balance at
most locations. Leg quarters and thighs
were fully adequate and trading was
repotted at lower prices. The undertone
was soft. Wings were also fully adequate
for a sluggish demand but most trading was
reported at fairly steady prices.

Prices were unchanged. The market tone
was firm in Northern California, and gen
erally steady elsewhere. Demand was fair
to good, mostly moderate, and best where
featured. Supplies remained short in
Northern California, adequate to fully
adequate elsewhere. Breaking slock prices
were generally unchanged, and supplies
were adequate. Live hen trading was too
light to report prices, and offerings were at
least adequate for the fair at best demand.
