German Goose Trade Drives Berlin Feast Season
The goose plays a role in German life similar to the turkey here with October at its peak. Russia supplies most imports, around 15,000 birds daily to Berlin, transported in goose trains of forty cars. Rigorously inspected on arrival, diseased birds are quarantined or slaughtered at city pens, with auctions for healthy birds. Wholesale geese sales total about $2,000,000 yearly, and German dealers classify Russian geese into twenty one breeds.
