摘要

The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture announced plans to buy up to $14 million worth of dark meat chicken products for federal food nutrition assistance programs, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said in mid June.rn"The purchase announced today will help poultry producers who are experiencing an increase in dark meat cold-storage inventories and a decreasing wholesale price," Vilsack said.
