Book excerpt: Excerpt from Production and Marketing Costs and Margins for Poultry and Eggs For many years, the variations in returns received by poultry and egg producers mainly reflected year-to-year changes in output and its impact on prices. Production costs varied somewhat due to; small changes in feed ingredient prices, production efficiency, and use of capacity. Marketing margins were declining to stable, tending to reflect fairly constant spreads back from wholesale levels toward the producer. With feed ingredient prices showing much wider swings in recent years, and with prices of other inputs rising, the need to keep abreast of data on production costs and returns and marketing costs and margins has become more pressing. The Economic Research Service, in cooperation with the Georgia, Missouri, and Pennsylvania agricultural experiment stations, is conducting a program of research to develop better continuing measurements of production and marketing costs. This article is based on some inputs from that program as well as on other recent studies. Figures presented are preliminary and more indicative of relative changes than of precise levels. These series will be refined as more data are collected and analyzed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
