Final Point Of Sale Value For Poultry Products Exceeded $1 Billion In 1982 Thomas A. Carter Specialist-in-Charge Extension Poultry Science NCSL April, 1983, has been pro claimed Poultry and Egg Month in North Carolina by Governor James B. Hunt Jr. Poultry and Egg Month is an opportunity for the North Carolina poultry industry to tell its success story. With the depressed economy on everyone's mind, it is excit ing to tell about an industry that is growing. Not only has the poultry industry had continued growth, but it has grown at a whopping 167% rate during the last decade. Onp nf fhp main rpacnnc that poultry continues to grow is that there is an increased demand for poultry products. This increased de mand is because the con sumer is being provided an economical, nutritious and wholesome product. The poultry industry is proud of the significant im pact it has on the economy of the state. Final point-of-sale value for poultry products produced and processed in the state well exceeded SI billion in 1982. Another sig nificant contribution to the state is the jobs the industry provides for the citizens. Over 3,600 farmers produce poultry and eggs. Processing plants, feed mills, hatcheries and other poultry industry jobs employ 11,000 more workers. The major consumer pro ducts produced by the N.C. poultry industry are broilers, turkeys, eggs and ducks. Broilers contribute S3 percent of the total poultry farm income; turkeys 23 percent and eggs 22 percent. The remainder is largely made up of the newest segment of the poultry in dustry ? duck production. While broilers are the largest poultry commodity in the state, it should be noted that North Carolina produced more turkeys than any other state in both 1981 and 1982. Yes, April 1983 ? Poultry and Egg Month ? is a good time for both the consumer and the poultry industry to celebrate. The consumer can celebrate because poultry and eggs are one of the best bargains in the food market. The industry can celebrate because they make a signi ficant contribution to the economy of North Carolina 'while providing good poultry and egg products to the consumer. Industry Bond Sale Approved The Duplin County Board of Commissioners tentatively approved a request from J.P. Stevens Co for the sale of SI million in tax-free bonds to ret<hiI the company's Carter Plant in Wallace when they met last week. The company estimates the total cost of the retooling at S6 million. When the plant returns to full operation, it will employ about S00 peopic. The annroval is one of - r , several steps necessary for the sale of such bonds. The request now will go to the N.C. Department of Com merce for review. If the department approves the proposal, it will come back to the county board for final approval. Companies seek as much financing as possible through tax-exempt bonds because they carry lower interest rates than conventional bonds, said William H. McBride of Raleigh, a bond lawver. McBride said Stevens is seeking authority for the sale ot tax-exempt bonds in three other counties. The company is retooling the Carter plant, one of two it operates in Wallace, to make cotton and polyester How often do you use soybeans in your kitchen? Most people use soybean oil every week. Soyoil is the main ingredient in 80 percent of the salad and cooking oils. 83 percent of the margarines. 63 percent of the solid short enings and 90 percent of the salad dressings sold in American supermarkets. It is also in cake mixes, candies, mayonnaise. TV dinners, soups, frozen fried foods and many other items. Check the manufacturer's instructions before cleaning and storing an electric blanket. Some cannot be washed. Never fold the blan ket sharply; doing so might break the wires. Cover the blanket with a protective cover and don't store other linens or objects on top of ?t- ?. materials for leisure and outerwear. The plant pre viously made a knitted fabric for lingerie and some auto mobile upholstery. The retooling is expected to be completed late this summer. In other action, the county commissioners called a special meeting to be held in the commissioners' room of the courthouse to discuss hiring a hospital financial consultant. A request for the county to supply radio pagers to state forest commission employees so they can be called when off duty will be taken up during budget sessions. Commissioner D.J. Fussell opposed the move, saying, "This is just something else the state's passing down.
