The Poultry And Egg Situation Vol 128 June July 1948 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Poultry and Egg Situation, Vol. 128: June-July 1948 The number of layers on farms at the beginning of 1948 was 1 percent less than at the beginning of 1947. During the first half of this year the rate of culling was somewhat greater than a year earlier because of less favorable relationships between feed prices and egg prices. By June, the number of layers on farms was 4 percent less than in June 1947. The rate of production per bird during the first half of 1948, however, was at a record level. Total egg production during the first 6 months of 1948 was smaller than a year earlier by only 2 percent. Egg production will decrease. Seasonally through November. Output during the second half of the year will continue below 1947; however, it will be augmented'by the somewhat large r storage holdings of shell eggs which were accumulated during the second quarter of 1948. On July 1, the holdings of shell eggs in the United States totaled million cases compared with million cases on July 1, 1947. Consequently, supplies of eggs for consumption during the remainder of 1948 will be nearly as great as a year earlier.'

Excerpt from The Poultry and Egg Situation, Vol. 31: July 1, 1939 The poultry and egg situation in June showed little improvement over previous months of this year, reports the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. Prices of' eggs were at the lowest level since 1931] and prices of chickens were lower than at any time since the winter of 1937. The lower prices this year than last reflect chiefly larger seasonal marketings of chickens and eggs and larger storage stocks of these products. A recent supporting factor to eggrprices has been the purchase of cars of eggs by the Federal Surplus Commodities Corporation for relief distribution. The feed egg price ratio continues much less favorable for farmers than a year earlier. Receipts of eggs at the four markets New York, Chicagp, Philadelphia and Boston have been declining seasonally but continue above last year. Since late May, combined storage holdings of shell and frozen eggs have been above last year. By August 1 holdings may be 5 to 10 percent larger than on that date last year. The number of chickens from this year's hatchings in farm flocks on June 1 was about 3 percent larger than on that date in 1938 as compared with 5 percent above last year on May 1. On the basis of past relationships be tween changes in numbers of chickens on January 1 and changes in number of chicks and young chickens the preceding June 1, the size of laying flocks on January 1, 19110 may be little if any larger than'in i939.
