Scientific breeding boosts Thanksgiving turkey flavor and yield
Western farmers around Long Beach drive a booming turkey industry. California leads production with about 6,000,000 birds this year, and a network of hatcheries ships poults and finished birds to the Los Angeles market. The process, starting in spring, focuses on converting feed to meat and improving brea st and taste for holiday tables.
