Vermont Poultry Farmers Modernize In Vermont State
Vermont poultry producers, numbering about 45 mostly egg farmers, are expanding through automated equipment and controlled housing. Flock sizes range from a few thousand to about 200 000 layers, with households often running producer packer operations that market eggs locally. Each farm invests roughly 100 000 dollars in facilities and 60 000 to 70 000 dollars in birds, with many fully mechanized in handling feed water eggs and manure.
