Differences between the 9-city and 12-city broiler price reports
1984
Henson, W.L.
Extract: To reflect the whole-carcass broiler market more accurately, USDA in 1983 replaced the 9-cities price reporting series with a new series based on 12 cities and including three more whole-carcass product forms. The old series' coverage had eroded so that it represented only about half the whole-carcass birds marketed in the 9 cities. Price breakdowns for the 9 cities, the 3 new cities, the 12 cities, and the 3 new product forms show their relative responsibility for the price difference between the two series while both were reported. Also, the 12-cities series is estimated back to 1978, with explanation of how adjustments were made for the discrepancies between the two series.
