The holiday push is wrapping up, and the markets are starting to show their hand. Beef is splitting in two directions, poultry feels steady but uneasy, pork stays a value, grains won't budge, and dairy may finally be finding a floor. With January right around the corner, the next two weeks could set the tone for everything that follows.BEEF: Holiday pricing is making its final stand, and the beef market is starting to split in two directions. Middle meats are finally easing while other cuts quietly set up their next move. Two weeks from now, this market could look very different.POULTRY: Chicken finishes the year well supplied and steady, but this calm feels temporary. With avian flu still popping up and no real downside left, the next move is likely up – the only question is when.GRAINS: Soy export news finally surfaced, but the grain markets barely blinked. Corn, soy, and wheat remain stuck in neutral, waiting for something – anything – to break the stalemate.PORK: Bellies slide again, keeping bacon firmly in value territory heading into the new year. With strong production and solid inventories, pork remains one of the quiet winners on the board.DAIRY: Dairy prices are sending mixed signals, hinting the recent slide may be running out of steam. Whether this is the bottom or just another pause is the next story to watch.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

The latest episode of the Georgia Tech Research Podcast focuses on a critical but often unseen component of Georgia's agricultural infrastructure: the Georgia Poultry Laboratory Network (GPLN). Host Stephanie Richter, a senior research scientist in GTRI's ATAS laboratory, is joined by Dr. Louise Dufour-Zavala, executive director of GPLN, for a conversation on poultry health, disease prevention, emergency response, and the laboratory network's close coordination with industry, state, and federal partners. Throughout the episode, Richter and Dufour-Zavala explore how GPLN functions day to day, why its work is essential to Georgia's economy, and how science, speed, and communication work together when animal health is on the line. GPLN exists to help keep Georgia's poultry flocks healthy, safe, and market-ready. That mission plays out through an extensive testing and surveillance operation, with approximately 1.7 million samples processed annually. The episode emphasizes that this testing supports not only flock health but also food safety, business continuity, and export eligibility.

Holiday demand reminded the markets who's in charge — beef hit rare production levels while premium cuts held firm. As poultry and grains wait it out, pork stays a value and dairy keeps sliding into bargain territory. With the calendar about to flip, the real question is what holds… and what finally gives in the new year.BEEF: Holiday demand pushed production to a rare 600K head, but premium cuts are still commanding top dollar. The big question now – have middle meats finally hit their seasonal ceiling, and what happens next when the calendar flips?POULTRY: Chicken pricing stays calm and steady as we head toward the new year. But with avian flu cases climbing again, could this quiet market be one headline away from changing fast?GRAINS: Corn, soy, and wheat continue to tread water, moving just enough to stay interesting. Until something breaks the pattern, this market looks content to wait it out.PORK: Bellies bounced back this week, but the pork market feels stuck in neutral. With plenty of value still reminding buyers why pork stays on the menu, does this calm stretch continue into January?DAIRY: Cheese keeps sliding while butter barely blinks, turning dairy into one of the best bargains on the board.

Middle meats are the gift that keeps getting pricier, and buyers are wondering whether the peak is finally here. Meanwhile, poultry stays affordable, pork remains a value, and dairy drops to holiday-baking lows — making this week's markets as mixed as a stocking full of surprises.BEEF: Holiday pricing is testing its limits, and while middle meats are sky-high, the market may finally be running out of steam. Chucks, rounds, and thin meats are slipping, and production numbers continue to reveal a shrinking cattle supply heading into 2026. Are we finally approaching the turn — or just pausing before another surge?POULTRY: Chicken remains the protein value hero of the season, with production up and pricing steady across wings, breasts, and tenders. But with avian flu cases continuing to creep in, could this calm be short-lived?GRAINS: Grain prices are stuck in neutral, with corn holding firm and soy struggling to spark a rally.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Rodrigo Gallardo, poultry veterinarian from UC Davis, to unpack the critical connection between biosecurity and the prevention of Avian Influenza (AI) — a highly contagious and potentially devastating disease for all chickens and gamefowl breeders and their bloodlines. Whether you're a breeder or raiser, understanding how AI spreads and how to block it at the source is essential. We explore the differences between Low Pathogenic (LPAI) and Highly Pathogenic (HPAI) strains, the role of wild birds in transmission, and the economic and animal welfare impacts of outbreaks. You'll learn: How Avian Influenza is transmitted—and how quickly it can spread The early warning signs of AI in chickens What biosecurity really means and how to implement it effectively Why vaccination isn't a universal solution (and when it might be used) Key biosecurity practices every breeder should follow—regardless of flock size The role of veterinarians in disease surveillance, outbreak response, and long-term prevention Whether you're an experienced breeder or a first-time chicken keeper, this conversation offers practical advice and up-to-date insight to help you keep your birds — and your farm — safe from disease. #AvianInfluenza #Biosecurity #PoultryHealth #GamefowlBreeding #ChickenBreeders #HPAI #LPAI #BackyardChickens #PoultryVeterinaryCare #DiseasePrevention #FarmBiosecurity #UCDAvisPoultry Join us on Bred to Perfection Live, Friday's at 6pm PST or 9pm EST on YouTube, as we discuss the benefits of creating your own strain.

As we head into Thanksgiving, the markets are serving up a mixed plate — some items are easing, others are heating up, and a few might burn your budget. Whether it's a gravy train or a little holiday pain depends on the protein. Let's dig in and see what's really simmering this week.BEEF: Middle meats are heating up fast for the holidays, with ribeyes, strips, and tenderloins pushing higher and showing no signs of slowing. Chucks and rounds are softening a bit, but ground beef is still gaining strength — the question is how high these premiums will run through December.POULTRY: Chicken remains steady despite massive production levels, with wings, breasts, and tenders barely moving. But after 23 new avian flu cases this week, will this calm hold through the winter migration?GRAINS: Soy tried to rally and stalled, corn slipped, and wheat held steady — nothing seems able to spark this market. With winter wheat nearly fully planted, the real question is what it will take to break this grain gridlock.PORK: Bellies finally broke lower, dropping $22 to $118, and this softer market may carry well into December. With strong production and plenty of supply, will pork remain the best value on the protein board?DAIRY: Dairy keeps sliding, with block, barrel, and butter all moving lower again — and butter now at its cheapest point since 2021. The big question: will low holiday pricing spark demand, or is there still more room to fall?Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Welcome to Part 4 of the Poultry Health Master Class, featuring poultry nutritionist Jeff Mattocks and poultry educator Carey Blackmon.
