Ohio Poultry and Egg Trends Highlight Past Year
Ohio experts note fewer spring and summer chicks but more laying hens this fall, suggesting stronger flock carrying over. Egg output lags 2 to 3 percent year to date but rose in October and November. Egg prices fell below 1927 levels in November, with smaller seasonal gains than recent years. US egg stocks are high while frozen poultry stocks are low. A 1928 Federal Standard Container Act requires nonconforming baskets be disposed of by November 1 1928, banning certain state weight laws for interstate shipments. The act standardizes basket capacities to 1 eighth, 1 fourth, 1 1 4, 1 1 2, and 2 bushels with 2150.42 cubic inches per bushel.
