and the price of chicken is still cheap.
Don't count on that to last long with feed prices skyrocketing. Same with beef, pork, and catfish.
Our catfish feed is over 500 dollars a ton. And we feed out around 200 tons a day 6 days a week. That's 600,000 dollars a week just on feed.
Gov't announced today they will be buying a lot of catfish, beef, and chicken (i'm guessing for public school lunches) to help bail out the struggling industries and get the prices up to where we can afford the feed prices.
