Book Description

The purpose of this study was to develop a layout and operating methods for a 35-case-per-hour egg-grading and packing plant, located close enough to the production houses to facilitate conveying the eggs into the plant to minimize handling costs and maximize quality. Producers should use the expected cost and return data appropriate for their individual situations to determine the feasibility of such a plant. In situations where the price spreads are less than presented in this report, such a plant might not be feasible
