DELMARVA BROILER/FRYER
MARKET. FEDERAL-STATE
Movement of ready-to-cook whole birds
wu light and unaggressive. Seller offer
ings remained readily available and were
slow in clearing on the 3 pound and heavier
sizes; lighter weights were in fairly good
balance. Live supplies were mostly mod
erate; weights were desirable to heavy.
Processing schedules were moderate to
heavy. Lest than trucklot asking prices
were unchanged at 62 to 76 cents. Trade
sentiment was weak. In die parts complex
breast items were in excess and difficult to
place. Leg items were fully sufficient for
current inquiry. Wings were available and
competitively priced to stimulate buyers
interest.
