A large part of the information obtained in the study relates to physical quantities of inputs and outputs and hence is not closely dependent on current prices. Data on costs will be valid until price levels change and even then they may form the basis for calculat- ing adjustments. Egg Production and Returns Under the price relationships that existed during the study, the average net management return for the flocks of various sizes showed a loss of $31 to $200 per 100 hens, or 1. 9 to 11. 5 c...ents per dozen eggs (Table 11). Twenty-one flocks or 18 percent of the total number more than broke even. For all flocks, egg sales made up 97 percent of the returns. Other income items were eggs used, manure credit, and dividends and refunds. Eggs used were credited at a flat rate of 32 cents a dozen. Poultry manure production was estimated at 4, 000 pounds per 100 hens and was valued at $4. 50 a ton. 1 MANAGEMENT PRACTICES As might be expected, the 118 flocks included in the study were handled under a wide variety of conditions.
