Abstract

Excerpts from the report Introduction: The postwar period has been one of especially rapid change for commercial egg producers. Even more than in many other lines of agricultural production, size of operation has increased, rates of production have gone up, and new methods have been used to save labor and use production resources more effectively. These changes seem to have been most striking in the Northeastern States, where the relatively large number of commercial poultrymen are attempting to meet both competition from egg producers in other areas and competition from other food products. The main purpose of this report is to describe and analyze the more important changes that have occurred since the end of World War II in one of the most concentrated commercial egg-producing areas in the Northeastern States--central and southern New Jersey.
