PENB Breeder Hatchery Plan advances poultry finance
The Poultry and Egg National Board announced a breeder hatchery financing program described as a major step in financing progress. A Breeder Committee chaired by Dr. George J. Godfrey will coordinate a system where breeders fund PENB promotions at one half cent per foundation pallet placed, with many hatcherymen urged to match the amount. Breeders and associates will forward funds to PENB, with alternative monthly or annual payments available for hatcherymen not choosing the match offer. Breeders listed include Babcock Poultry Farm Ithaca NY, Cashman Leghorn Farms Webster KY, Colonial Poultry Farms Pleasant Hill MO, DeKalb Agricultural Association Inc.
