US growers raised an estimated 198.5 million turkeys in 2026, up about 3% from 2025 and the first annual increase since 2023. USDA forecasts turkey meat production up 6% this year and higher again in 2027; domestic use and exports are also forecast to rise, while cold-storage inventories at the end of September were down 4.5% year over year.
Higher production adds to turkey meat supply, while stronger domestic use and exports absorb part of the increase; shrinking inventories may keep availability comparatively tight. Feed costs remain a constraint for producers, but the article does not specify a change in feed-ingredient prices.
