Eggs Praised By Specialist
Dr. David Mellor, poultry marketing specialist for Texas A and M Extension Service, touts eggs as a great value and versatile protein source. He notes eggs offer economical protein despite higher prices recently, due to shifts in poultry production and rising feed and red meat costs. A factory worker can buy about 5.4 dozen eggs with one hour of labor at 75 cents a dozen, up from 4.1 dozen in 1959.

While India and Pakistan boosted grain output, global per person gains were small due to population growth and waste.
