Organic Chicken Slaughter Rises and Recovers COVID Short-fall

Ahead of Tuesdayโ€™s general election, Non-GMO soybeans are stable pricing at a premium of $1.40 over the local cash price. Merchandisers are telling The Jacobsen that exporters are waiting to see the results and how it will impact the greenback. Additionally, non-GMO soybean meal prices are also unchanged hovering near the 120 per short ton premium level over conventional. For 2020, it appears that approximately 5-million acres of non-GMO soybeans have been planted, with approximately 52% being used as food-grade beans and 48% as feed grade non-GMO soybeans.

Organic Chicken Slaughter By Weight Rises

Organic chicken slaughter by weight has rebounded during the last 5-months to recover all the losses it had experienced during the beginning of the spread of the pandemic. Recall, during April and the first 2-weeks of May, several slaughterhouses were closed, which significantly reduced organic chicken slaughter. Since mid-May, organic chicken slaughter has played โ€œcatch up footballโ€ and has not equaled the slaughter experienced in 2019. Organic turkey slaughter remains โ€œon fireโ€. The number of organic turkeys that were slaughtered in the week ending October 24, reached the highest level on record according to the AMS. Organic turkey slaughter increased by 37% week over week and is up more than 200% year over year for the 43 weeks of 2020.
