Frequently asked questions.

How many USDA-inspected poultry slaughter plants does the Library list?

The Agriculture Resource Library lists 459 USDA-inspected poultry slaughter plants across 36 states, each with its own page. The states with the most are Pennsylvania (34), Texas (29), Georgia (26).

Do I need an inspected plant to sell my chickens?

Federal law exempts some small on-farm poultry producers (the 1,000 and 20,000 bird exemptions) from continuous inspection, with limits on where the birds can be sold. Your state adds its own rules. An inspected plant removes the question.
