This is a renewal of a group of long
running poultry surveys. These surveys are used to provide data to
prepare estimates of production, disposition, and income derived
from eggs, chickens, and turkeys. The comprehensive series of
surveys keeps the government, health officials, and poultry
industry abreast of current status and coming changes. Only minor
adjustments have been made to this program from the previous
approval due to changes in the target population.
