Report Supplied By USDA
Trucklot buying activity remained very
light as dealers continued with tightly bal
anced floorstocks and saw no need to ex
tend inventories significantly approaching
the weekend. In addition, the curtailing of
regularly committed product was oc
caisionally noted as an unsettled trade
sentiment permeated throughout the mar
ket. Offerings of boneless-skinless breasts
were readily available and bone-in breasts
were fully sufficient.
Boneless-skinless thigh meat was ample
and sharply discounted. Tenderloins were
fully sufficient. The balance of cuts
ranged adequate to fully adequate.
The market tone was weak on boneless
skinless thigh meat, barely steady on
boneless-skinless breasts and tenderloins,
cautiously steady on bone-in breasts and
no better than steady on the balance of
cuts.

Report Supplied By USDA
Mostly prices were unchanged to slight
ly lower on whole, balance of items were
generally unchanged when compared to
last week’s trading. The market tone was
somewhat cautious as traders watch fur
ther market developments. Demand was
unaggressive due in part to holiday week.
Supplies were usually sufficient on most
items. Liquid and frozen eggs (ingredients
included) processed under federal inspec
tion in the Eastern region for the week
ending June 29 were 3% less than the pre
vious week, but 8% more than a year ago.
