Causes of Differences in Poultry 



Profits 



By R. L. Mighell and F. H. Branch 



Records based on experience in poultry farming show wide differences 

 in financial returns. It is assumed that these differences can be attributed 

 to certain specific practices and conditions which may be subject to con- 

 trol or modification. This study was undertaken to determine the extent 

 to which the various factors and conditions operated and were effective 

 in influencing profit in the industry.
