Abstract

Excerpts from the report Preface: Many questions have been raised in recent years by members of the industry and others about the present system of pricing eggs. A program of research has been activated to study the present system, methods for its improvement, and alternatives to the present system. This report presents detailed descriptions of the various kinds of market news information currently available on eggs from Federal, State, and private agencies and an appraisal of the extent to which they are used by the industry. No comprehensive listing of these sources of information has been recently prepared. The availability and full use of accurate and timely market news information is fundamental to the effective operation of any pricing system. This report will serve several purposes: (1) to more fully acquaint the industry with the kinds of information currently available on prices and for making pricing decisions; (2) to evaluate the need for modifications in and additions to various kinds of market news series; and, (3) to serve as a working tool for use in other egg pricing research projects now underway.
