# Wholesale turkey prices hold steady amid higher production

> U.S. wholesale whole-turkey prices averaged $1.80 per pound in late October, up from $1.69 a year earlier, though the year-over-year gap has narrowed. Higher production is expected to keep Thanksgiving supplies plentiful, with grocery promotions likely to temper retail prices.

## Why it matters

Ample production limits the risk of a holiday supply squeeze, even as wholesale prices remain above last year. This points to relatively steady poultry prices rather than a major feed-demand or livestock-market shift.
