If farmers grow and market their own poultry they are no longer dependentupon a contract which binds them to the whims of the companies. No longerwill they live under the constant threat of having their contract canceled. If their operating cost rise on the farm as they have in the past, thegrower will be able to implement their own cost effective measures, notones which force them out of business. The responsibility for their futurewill be in their own hands not the hands of someone who considers themto be nothing more than a thing to be thrown away like yesterdays trashwhen times get tough. The National Contract Poultry Growers Association is part of this co-operativemovement toward more farmer independence and profitability.
Free enterprise is alive and well.
