Fast Food Chains Shape Farm Markets Says USDA Report
The Agriculture Department notes fast-food growth impacts cattle markets for nonfed animals and boosts the broiler industry. Since 1963, fast-food sales rose from 4.9 to 19.7 billion dollars by 1978, with four top firms controlling 41 percent of sales. Competition may slow expansion amid higher prices and gas shortages.
