The family-owned chicken producer was the first in the U.S. to eliminate the routine use of antibiotics from 100% of its broiler business in August 1998.
While all three major protein categories — chicken, beef and pork — have interesting narratives heading toward the traditionally strong summer selling season, none is more compelling than the broiler industry.
U.S. poultry production is accelerating. Despite record levels, we caution you not to lose sight of the upcoming period of slowing growth expected in U.S. food production.
If you ever find yourself wondering where the next generation of leaders is coming from for our industry, I urge you to spend just one day at the National FFA Convention (this year, in Indianapolis, Oct. 24-27).
