Canadian poultry demand set to stay high through 1987
Agriculture Canada economists project turkey demand up six percent and chicken up 7.9 percent through 1987. Turkey consumption will rise due to above quota production and lower costs, with producer prices easing. Ontario wholesale broiler turkey may reach 2.60 per kg before Easter, while chicken prices stay stable with grade A broilers at 1.04 to 1.08 per kg in Q4. Egg consumption in Q4 is expected to rebound by 1.3 percent from July levels.</final>
