at least $4,000 boys will be officially

a scent import tax on baby chicks.
they cannot afford to buy sexed

production in Peru presently is re-

broiler production.
Because of having the largest
population of any of the countries
visited, Brazil is a large potential
market for Matching eggs and
chicks. Brazlians in urban areas
consume only 65 eggs per person
a year. The Sac Paulo Poultry AS
sociation, with about 2.400 mem
bers. is striving to increase con-
sumption, and if it succeeds, there
will be greater demand for r. o. p
produced United States Matching
eggs. Because of currency prob
lens, Brazilian imports of Matching
eggs are much smaller that the
buyers desire, and to overcome this
difficulty, some egg producers
would like to develop exports of
market eggs to hard-currency coun-
tries.
Mexico is the largest buyer of
United States poultry products,
and its needs should expand as its
industry develops. Straight run
chicks and market eggs presently
are in greatest demand. However,
as multiplying farms increase, the
demand for foundation stock should
continue to rise. The Mexican Gov
ernment's policy of encouraging
consumption of certain basic foods,
which include eggs, should help to
maintain imports of United States
Grade B eggs.
Last November Colombia sharply
curtailcd imports of United States
market eggs under sanitary regu-
iations. The country is now de-
veloping a poultry program, and
there is a feeling there that egg inn
ports at various times of the year
when Colombian production is low
would BE- advantageous to consum-
ers. Consequently. there is a possi
bility that the sanitary regulations
may be eased later to allow greater
entry OF market eggs into Colombia
at such times.
