Excerpt from Livestock and Poultry Situation and Outlook Report, Vol. 53: May 1992 Pressure on net returns will likely ease in the second half as growth in meat production slows and feed costs moderate. Broiler production is expected to advance about 5 percent this year, compared with 6 percent in 1991. Slower produc tion growth and expectations of continued strong broiler ex ports will help support prices. Wholesale prices for whole birds are expected to average 48-52 cents a pound, compared with 52 cents last year. Retail prices for whole broilers are placed at about 86 cents a pound, 2-3 percent below a year ago. With lower prices and higher feed costs through much of 1992, net tetums are likely to be the lowest in several years, suggesting steady-to-slower growth for 1993. Turkey production is forecast to increase about 3 percent this year, following last year's 2-percent rise. Wholesale turkey prices are expected to average 59-63 cents per pound in 1992, compared with 61 cents a year ago. Retail prices for frozen whole birds will probably average 23 percent below 1991's $1 per pound. Booming exports are providing some support to parts prices.
