> Chicken wing prices are up sharply ahead of the Super Bowl, with whole wings up 19 percent year-over-year in December while the national composite chicken price rose 5 percent. Total December broiler harvest fell 4 percent after HPAI losses of 5.6 million broilers last year and 1.6 million more so far this year.
