Poultry Farming In The United States
Poultry farming is a part of the United States's agricultural economy. History Beginnings; eggs from the farm In the United States, chickens were raised primarily on family farms or in some cases, in poultry colonies, such as Judge Emery's Poultry Colony until about 1960. Originally, the primary value in poultry keeping was eggs, and meat was considered a byproduct of egg production. A United States Department of the Interior census in 1840 found American farmers had a total combined poultry flock valued at approximately $12 million ($ million in today's dollars).. Following the Treaty of Wanghia between the US and China in 1844, oriental poultry breeds were imported to New England, and Rhode Island became the nation's first major poultry center. Cross-breeding between English and Asian birds created new breeds still common today, like the Barred Plymouth Rock. Chickens remained primarily to provide eggs, mostly to the farmer ( subsistence agriculture), with commercialization ...
