BROILER OUTLOOK
Broiler production is expect
ed to register only a small in
crease in 1965, according to Paul
C. Bunce of the Extension Ser=-
vice., He says production will
be above year earlier levels at
the start of ‘65 because of re=-
cently increased hatchery activi
ty. He adds, however, that the
industry may be able to avoid
over-expansion in the first half
of the new year.
