Iowa eggs benefit from grain abundance despite heating and shipping costs
Iowa leads egg production due to ready grain supply for feed. In 2007 Iowa's hens laid 13.9 billion eggs needing 50 million bushels of corn and 453000 tons of soybean meal. Sparbee Farms official Mark Friedow notes feed advantage offsets winter heating and transport costs. Don McNamara cites rising per capita egg consumption from 235 to 259 annually. Organic producers like Farmer's Hen House expand from niche to mainstream through Iowa's grain bounty.
