This, the first of these discussion papers, was given as an address to the Lincoln College Poultry Farmers' Refresher Course. In the paper Dr Ward presents some tentative projections for the poultry industry for 1973, and indicates what economic research is required to improve this type of forecasting which is essential to planning the orderly development of the industry.enpoultry industryforecastingeconomic planningindicative planningMonographANZSRC::140201 Agricultural Economics
