GEORGIA POULTRY FACTS 1982 EDITION
Georgia is the number one State in all chicken and egg cash receipts and poultry is the number one agricultural industry in Georgia.
This publication is a compilation of all the statistical poultry data released by the Georgia Crop Reporting Service during the past year with comparisons back to 1975. It is designed to aid data users throughout the poultry industry in analyzing historical data and to possibly project future trends in the industry.
Our sincere gratitude goes to cooperating reporters, hatcherymen, egg farmers, feed dealers, the Poultry Improvement Association, the various trade associations and all others who provided the individual operation data that made these estimates possible.
Current poultry information is published by the Georgia Crop Reporting Service weekly in the Weekly Hatchery report and semi-monthly in the Georgia Farm Report.

GEORGIA POULTRY FACTS 1983 EDITION
Georgia is the number one State in all chicken and egg cash receipts and poultry is the number one agricultural industry in Georgia. This publication is a compilation of all the statistical poultry data released by the Georgia Crop Reporting Service during the past year with comparisons back to 1976. It is designed to aid data users throughout the poultry industry in analyzing historical data and to possibly project future trends in the industry. Our sincere gratitude goes to cooperating reporters, hatcherymen, egg farmers, feed dealers, the Poultry Improvement Association, the various trade associations and all others who provided the individual operation data that made these estimates possible. Current poultry information is published by the Georgia Crop Reporting Service weekly in the Weekly Hatchery report and semi-monthly in the Georgia Farm Report.
Compiled by GEORGIA CROP REPORTING SERVICE Larry E. Snipes, Statistician In Charge Mike Hammer, Assistant Statistician In Charge Roy W. Green, Poultry Statistician
A cooperative function of GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Thomas T. Irvin, Commissioner

G EO R 6 I A POULTRY FACTS 1984 EDITION
Georgia is the number one State in all chicken and egg cash receipts and poultry is the number one agricultural industry in Georgia.
This publication is a compilation of all the statistical poultry data released by the Georgia Crop Reporting Service during the past year with comparisons back to 1977. It is designed to aid data users throughout the poultry industry in analyzing historical data and to possibly project future trends in the industry.
Our sincere gratitude goes to cooperating reporters, hatcherymen, egg farmers, feed dealers, the Poultry Improvement Association, the various trade associations and all others who provided the individual operation data that made these estimates possible.
Current poultry information is published by the Georgia Crop Reporting Service weekly in the Weekly Hatchery report and semi-monthly in the Georgia Farm Report.
Compiled By GEORGIA CROP REPORTING SERVICE Larry E. Snipes, Statistician In Charge Mike Hammer, Assistant Statistician In Charge Roy W. Green, Poultry Statistician
A cooperative function of GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Thomas T. Irvin, Commissioner
