Tnicklot buying activity shifted from
normal patterns it many locations as trad
ers attempted to work as smartly as possi
ble. Offerings remained tight on bone-in
breasts while other items were often noted
as difficult to place. Retail and distributive
movement was sluggish and quickly fall
ing into a late month type mode. The mark
et tone was fully steady to firm on bone-in
breasts while other items were about
steady to weak in instances.

DELMARVA BROILER/FRYER
MARKET. FEDERAL-STATE
Movement of ready-to-cook whole birds
continued seasonally light and unaggres
sive. Offerings, although irregularly
balanced, were generally noted as readily
available. Live supplies were moderate to
light; weights were in a range of light to
heavy. Processing schedules were light to
moderate as adverse weather and earlier
planned curtailments combined to reduce
overall operations. Less than track!ot ask
ing prices were 1 cent lower at S 3 to 67
cents. Trade sentiment was barely steady to
weak. Boneless skinless breasts were irre
gularly available. Bone-in breasts were
adequate to short Other cuts were ample.
