Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an analysis of an agricultural poultry producers cooperative association in southern California. The book's beginning contextualizes the development of the poultry industry in Southern California through topics such as the rapid increase of population in the area, the increase in egg production, and seasonal production trends. It proceeds to discuss the cooperative's history, membership, organization, and operating costs. The book discusses the market structure for eggs in Los Angeles at the time the cooperative was founded and how egg prices were derived and established as well as industry practices around storage, grading, and distribution channels. It also provides an analysis of consumer trends and preferences that influenced the cooperative's challenges and potential advantages. The book examines trends in daily price fluctuations, methods of price manipulation, and quality of eggs. It does not limit itself to an internal analysis of the cooperative's operations but also addresses the status and consolidation of the wholesale market, with attention given to the role of the Produce Exchange of Los Angeles, its impact on pricing, and the alignment of competing interests within the market structure. The book concludes with an assessment of the cooperative's overall performance and prospects for the future, weighing the challenges and opportunities for the cooperative in light of changing market conditions, consumer preferences, and the evolution of the industry.
