Excerpt from Economic Performance of Commercial Laying Flocks on Illinois Farms
During recent years, many improvements have been made in poultry breeding, feeding, and management, and in methods of egg marketing. Between 1935 and 1955, egg production per hen increased from an average of 113 to 193, a 71-percent increase over the 21-year period. Volume of production is necessary to pay for the feed, labor, equipment, and other expenses, and to meet the competition from commercial laying flocks in eastern and southern states.
In order to analyze the requirements and returns of Illinois laying flocks under current practices and price levels, a cost study was under taken in 1954 to ascertain: (1) costs and returns of flocks that are kept as a semicommercial or commercial enterprise; (2) information on flock requirements of feed, labor, buildings, and other resources; and (3) how production and marketing and size of flock affect costs and returns.
