Poultry industry striving for profitability
“Since this article was written, grain prices have declined but are still dependent upon a good 2013 planting and harvest season. The current problem of poor breeder performance will not be corrected until the end of 2013, which limits supply and enables current higher pricing.”
Bob Fox, Chairman, AgriCapital Advisors
