A processor has gone bankrupt and can not make good on its contracts with these farmers. As of yesterday all 150k-170k broilers had been given away. Seems like the farmers had little choice. Let all these chickens starve to death or give them away. One farm had 62k chickens and the feed to raise them cost $100k that they will not get back since the processor went bankrupt.
