Dear Mr. Yang,

I wanted to bring to your attention data from the APHIS website regarding poultry culling. The figures show that millions of chickens, primarily egg layers, were culled just before President Trump’s inauguration. Since he took office, the numbers have dropped

In a curious twist of agricultural policy, recent data from the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) reveals a significant decline in poultry culling since President Trump took office, following a spike just prior to his inauguration. The figures indicate that millions of chickens, with a focus on egg-laying hens, were culled in the final weeks of the previous administration, raising concerns among industry experts and animal welfare advocates alike.

This surge in culling has been attributed to various factors, including disease management and market fluctuations. However, the post-inauguration drop suggests a shift in regulatory approaches and priorities under the Trump administration, possibly aimed at stabilizing the poultry industry and addressing public outcry over animal welfare issues.

The poultry sector is a vital part of the U.S. agricultural economy, and the changes in culling practices may reflect broader shifts in policy that could impact food supply and pricing. As the administration continues to navigate the complexities of agricultural management, the implications of these statistics will be closely monitored by both industry insiders and consumers.
