The Marketing Of Eggs And Producer Agents
The Chief of the Division of Marketing says in country districts the Egg Marketing Board method is not yet fully understood. Since 1028 the board expanded in Cumberland and Northumberland and in Nates and Wolndilly, and took full state control in November 1941 after producers moved the outer area under its scope. The board appoints Producer Agents who sell eggs to local stores hotels and other channels under set conditions including price floors monthly returns and a stabilisation charge. The rise in the stabilisation charge reflects wartime shipping limits and demand. If a producer cannot find his own market he may send sales to the Board directly.
