Farm Outlook From Extensionist Sees Narrow Poultry Bright Spot
Iowa State College economist Stephen J. Hiemstra says despite a recent drop of up to five cents a dozen, poultry remains a financial bright spot for farmers. He attributes this to seasonal production increases and demand softening, expects only a small rebound, and notes that 1955 production and storage trends suggest a weaker outlook into next fall with potential reduced pullet numbers and lower hatchery and storage demand.
