reducing their production this year,
but not . ,as much so as growers in
other States, reports Lee W. Herrick,
Jr., Extension turkey specialist at
State College.
This year's estimated production
in the Tar Heel is 360,000 birds, a
decline of about 5 per cent from last
year. In the nation as a whole, a de
cline of about 20 per cent is an
ticipated. Herrick cited the high cost of feed
as the chief reason for the reduction
in turkey growing. Many of the
growers who are reducing their flocks
plan to re-enter the business as soon
as feed prices decline, ho said.
"Many small producers," he re
ported, "are reducing the size of their
flocks or discontinuing entirely while
many of the large growers are either
holding or increasing the size of their
flocks." ,
ine state now has 400 growers
who raise 100 or more turkeys each
year, and 46 counties in the State
have one or more producers raising
as many as 100 birds each.
Six North Carolina counties pro
duce over 10,000 birds each.- They
are Duplin, Anson, Union, Pamlico,
Moore and Buncombe. The following
six counties produce between o.uuo
and 10,000 each year: Chatham, Gas
ton, Iredell, Sampson, Cabarrus and
Lincoln.
