The Georgia Department of Agriculture - Poultry Market News division compiles and disseminates daily market and statistical information on the production and pricing of poultry and poultry products in Georgia. This is important to the state's overall economy because poultry is Georgia’s largest agricultural commodity, with the value of Georgia poultry production in the billions of dollars annually. Poultry market data is used by producers, processors, distributors, fast food operators, chain store buyers and other interested parties from the food industry.
We report the established prices of dressed f.o.b. dock broilers and fryers, line run tenders, skinless boneless breasts, whole breasts, boneless skinless thigh meat, thighs, drumsticks, leg quarters and wings processed in Georgia as well as information on supply, demand, volume of slaughter, number of loads and/or pounds sold, along with weighted average prices. Also, information on heavy breeder type hens is reported weekly.
