The National Chicken Council commissioned a study on "Competition in the U.S. Chicken Sector." Competition is alive and well in the broiler chicken industry and benefits chicken farmers, poultry companies, and consumers.
"On the national scale, it is the overall conclusion of this study that the chicken industry is a competitive and thriving sector," wrote Dr. Thomas Elam, an agricultural economist and president of FarmEcon LLC. "Intense competition among chicken companies leads to product innovation and lower prices for consumers. The vertically integrated structure of the industry has given it an advantage compared to its competitors and allowed it to respond quickly to changing consumer demand."
