Frank Priebe argues poultry producers should measure feed cost per dozen eggs or per pound of meat, not just price per bag. He cites Cornell research: adding granite grit may save significant feed, with 34 tons saved per 10 000 broilers and 4.32 dollars saved per 100 eggs. He urges testing proven practices to boost efficiency.
