Synopsis

Excerpt from Methods and Equipment for Ice-Packing Poultry

This report of research on methods and equipment employed in packing ice-packed whole ready-to-cook chicken in Georgia poultry plants is part of a larger project dealing with the more efficient work methods, equipment, and facilities for the off-farm handling, killing, dressing, eviscerating, cutting up, chilling, and packing of poultry. The work was under the supervision of Harold D. White, agricultural engineer, College of Agriculture, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia, and John A. Hamann, marketing research analyst, Transportation and Facilities Branch, Marketing Research Division, Agri cultural Marketing Service, Washington, D. C.

The study covers an area in poultry processing to which very little atten tion has been given in the past. Research techniques were employed to measure man and machine input requirements and resultant output-s, an approach that has not been previously employed in analyzing these operations.

The authors received valuable suggestions from Fred C. Winter, Professor of Industrial Engineering, Columbia University, and Consulting Engineer to Transportation and Facilities Branch.

The following Georgia poultry processing plants made their plant facilities available for this study.
