Annual Poultry Production is up 2.6 percent year-over-year and rising. The quarterly growth rate suggests continued acceleration in annual production. The current seasonal decline in the monthly and quarterly figures is milder than normal by historical standards or even compared with the past few years; current monthly production declined by only 3.8 percent month-to-month compared with a normal range of decline of 5.8 to 9.7 percent for this time of year. All indications point to continued strength in the annual poultry production data trend.
