Dynamic North Carolina Poultry Food Industry Exceeded *1 Billion In 1984 When the final 1984 statistics are released later this year, in all probability the North Carolina poultry food industry will exceed the billion dollar mark in farm income, according to Ed Woodhouse, execu tive director of the North Carolina Poultry Federation. Our dynamic food industry has grown tremendously within the last decade, and we may become in the years ahead the number one agricul tural commodity in the state, Woodhouse noted. While the final farm statistics for FOR SALE A building currently used as a store. To be moved off lot. Located 3 miles east of Kenans ville on Hwy. 50. 1984 are not complete, preliminary estimates that the poultry industry farm income in North Carolina may, for the first time in history, exceed the billion dollar mark. The gigantic N.C. poultry food industry includes production and marketing of commercial broilers, turkeys, eggs, duck and quail. These various poultry commodities make North Carolina the most diversified poultry food industry in America. The growth of the state's largest food industry can be seen by the following examples. In 1973, approximately 290 million broilers were produced in the state. However, the output in 1984 is estimated to top 430 million birds. Turkey production in North Carolina has also been spectacular. In 1984 turkey production is expected to exceed 29 million birds and will keep North Carolina the leading turkey producing state in the nation. Ap proximately 13 million turkeys were produced in North Carolina in 1973. North Carolina is also a leading producer of both hatching eggs and table eggs, and the total production of eggs in 1984 will well exceed 3 billion eggs. "That's enough eggs, laid end-to-end, to reach around the world several times. This fact helps the average person better under stand exactly how much egg pro duction is taking place in North Carolina each year," Woodhouse r?i iIaH IIMIVUi Duckling and quail are also a part of the total poultry diversification. Both duck and quail are produced commercially in North Carolina and can be found in most chain stores across the state. Both the broiler and the turkey industries continue to make large gains in marketing and production efficiency in North Carolina and across the nation. These gains are passed on to the consumer in the form of low retail prices. For example, when expressed in con stant dollars with the 1967 Consumer Price Index as the base, retail prices for dressed, ready-to-cook broilers dropped sharply from 38 cents per pound in 1967 to 29 cents per pound in 1983, according to Dr. Marc Johnson, extension economist in business at North Carolina State University in Raleigh. Consumers are buying more poultry products because they are wholesome and nutritious, and the ic riohi Retail nrires of p..? ..a , _ broilers, lurkeys and eggs have remained amazingly low. "For example, eggs ai SI a dozen cost the consumer 17 cents for a two-egg breakfast. That's a bargain, no matter how one looks at it," says Dr. Tom Carter, extension in charge, poultry science department, NCSU. The poultry food industry is by far the state's largest food indistry. The state ranks first in turkey production, fourth in broilers, and seventh in egg output when compared to other states. Much of the production of poiultry fowd is no>w "further pro cessed," according to Wondhonise, who> heads the stale's poniltry trade o>rganizatiom. The industry not only furnishes the comsumer with the whoole bird, but the comsumer can find chicken and turkey in cut-up forms such is drumsticks, thighs, breasts, etc., readily available in most fond stores acroiss (he state. Several poniltry processing plants in Noirth Carolina have products available for the consuming public that have been further processed. turkey tranxs, cnicucn iranns, pis irami, salami, chicken and turkey bologna, and other tastv and deli cious poultry products are processed in the slate. The North Carolina poultry food industry is expected to grow in the immediate years ahead. "The pio neering spirit and ingenuity of the poultry people in the state is unsur passed. Our people are willing to take many financial risks and have had the visionary spirit to move the state forward in poultry food pro duction. Naturally, over the years, we have had our depressed periods, but poultry industrymen have an innovative spirit and keep looking for new opportunities and better ways of doing things in our highly technical society. 1 am conficent that our North Carolina poultry industrymen will find ways to keep North Caroiina moving forward in poultry produc tion and marketing. New advances in production and marketing will bene fit the consuming public across America and around the world," Wood house stated.

His doctoral dissertation was en titled "Development in the Piedmont South," and examined social and - economic change in Rowan County as a typical example of the Piedmont during the period 1850-1900. The study focused on the question of whether Southern development was carried out by a rising middle class, a position argued by C. Vann Wood ward, or by an upper class directing it "from above," a theory inspired t>y sociologist Barrington Moore Jr. Since coming to James Sprunt, Dr. Beck has been very active in educa tional and community activities. He is a member of the Community College Humanities Association, the American History Association, and serves as an associate of the North Carolina Humanities Committee.
