Abstract

Excerpt from the Summary: The Dairy and Poultry Market News Branch of the Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA, regularly issues valuable and informative reports on current market prices and related marketing information to the poultry industry. These daily and weekly reports are constantly being evaluated and changed to keep up with today's rapidly changing industry. This publication describes how the weekly reports on Movement of Eggs into Retail Channels in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle were revised and improved and how a new weekly report in Portland-Vancouver was developed. The basic methodology used was developed in an earlier study of the Chicago weekly retail egg movement report. All firms believed to be handling eggs in each of the 4 metropolitan areas were surveyed to evaluate their influence on the market and on existing and future reports. Upon complete analysis of all responding firms in the surveys, a universe of firms was established for each market, from which weekly movements of eggs into retail channels data were collected.
