As a first step, an industry survey was conducted to collect production and marketing statistics at the farm and processing levels. In addition, total industry employment, number of contract growers and contract payments, and the intra- and inter- industry flows of goods and services were recorded. Using the survey results, region input/output analysis was performed to estimate the economic impact of the North Carolina poultry industry on total state production, income, and employment. Results show that the poultry industry as a whole supports almost 52,000 jobs and generates almost $1.6 billion in state income. Stated alternatively, the study shows that for every dollar of income earned by poultry processing firms, three dollars are generated across the state's economy, and for every person hired by a poultry processing facility, employment across the state increases by 2.92 persons. © 1995 Applied Poultry Science, Inc.
