Poultry Prices Revised by OPA
The Office of Price Administration issued an immediate reform of poultry pricing nationwide. Uniform prices set for each type, with drawn and quick frozen eviscerated poultry cut one to 10 cents per pound while quick frozen eviscerated broilers and fryers rise 1.5 to 2 cents. The plan targets black market activity by basing prices on country shipping point costs rather than delivery costs to buyers. Wholesale and retail prices will be tied to these new country prices.
