      abstract = {Estimates of energy use in the poultry and egg industry  are discussed by commodity, type of fuel, season, and  function.  In 1974, the 146.5 trillion Btu’s used in  poultry production and marketing cost producers almost $550  million.  Although the efficiency of energy use in this  industry has increased in the last decade, energy  conservation measures discussed in this report can yield  further substantial savings.  Development and  implementation of new technologies may reduce the use of  critical forms of energy in the future.  This study is  intended to provide a basis for further energy research in  the poultry and egg industry and to serve as a prototype  for similar energy studies on other agricultural  industries.},
