What moves this price

Whole birds are frozen through spring and summer to meet a fixed November demand, and retailers set their holiday programs months ahead. Bird flu losses in those build months cut into the frozen supply.

Prices come from USDA AMS's weekly national turkey report (report 3647): US wholesale trades, domestic and conventional, national weighted average. Parts are priced delivered, whole birds FOB. The chicken and turkey desk, with USDA's market commentary, is on the Poultry page. For chicken, see chicken prices by part.
