Abstract

Tremendous changes in the turkey industry since the 1950's include regional shifts in production and marketing, trends toward a more coordinated industry (increasing use of contract production and other arrangements), expansion and specialization of processing plants, and production of more cutup parts and further processed products—turkey rolls, roasts, pot pies, and frozen dinners. Other areas discussed are processing costs, prices, per capita consumption, and seasonal supply and demand.
