Broiler/Fryer Market
Wednesday, August 25, 1993
Movement of ready-to-coolc whole birds
was slow to fair and typical of mid-week
activity. Seller offerings were adequate to
fully adequate and in dose balance at some
points on under 3 pound sizes. Live sup
plies were generally moderate. Weights
varied but were mostly desirable. Process
ing schedules remained heavy. Less than
trucklot asking prices were unchanged at
50 to 64 cents. Trade sentiment was about
steady. In the pans complex, dark meat,
particularly leg quarters were held with
confidence. Machine cut wings were slow
to dear, handout were in fairly good
balance. Breast items were at least
adequate.

Broiler/Fryer Market
Wednesday, August 25, 1993
TracUot buying interest ranged quiet to
fair for immediate and but improved for
late week. Supplies of boneless skinless
breasts were irregularly distributed with
some product available but some interdeal
er interest not filled. Trading was reported
at unchanged prices. Line tun breasts were
balanced with current needs. Some product
was booked for late week delivery at lower
prices but the market appears steady. Yel
low skin leg quarters were short of trade
needs and prices trended higher. Some
buyer interest in bagged product went
unfilled. Demand for machine cut wings
slowed from early week but product
cleared satisfactosily.

NATIONAL EGG MARKET - AT A
GLANCE: Prices for the luge lizei were
unchinged to lower in the East and Mid
west; otherwise, prices were unchanged.
The trade sentiment ranged steady to weak,
mostly barely steady to weak. Movement
of cartoned eggs into retail channels was
no better than fair. Supplies of larger sizes
ranged adequate to ample, mediums were
in fairly good balance, bi the Central States
prices for nest run breaking stock
decreased sharply, checks and undergrade!
also trended lower. Light trading was
repotted for the ample offerings. Buyers
continued very cautious doe to neat
weekend holiday schedules. The undertone
was weak. The trade sentiment was gener
ally steady for light type hens in die South
east Demand was fair to good. Offerings
were irregular but usually fully adequate
for trade needs.
