Abstract

Excerpts from the report: This is a regional report of data obtained during 1958 from the six cooperatives in the Western area. It covers (1) total costs, (2) direct costs of handling eggs by specific operations, (3) total indirect costs, (4) labor output a man-hour, and (5) costs by type of pack. It is primarily a comparative statistical summary consisting of 25 cost and labor output tables covering the phases mentioned above. There are presented direct costs and labor output by cooperatives and individual operations, indirect costs by cooperatives but not by individual operations, and costs by type of pack by cooperatives. Cooperatives included in the study were selected because they were: (1) doing an effective job of marketing eggs; (2) either candling or cartoning a large portion of eggs received; (3) handling relatively large volumes compared with other associations in their areas; or (4) using newer type equipment.
