Below is a chicken-feed cost ratio which can be a good indication of producer profitability. Note that so far this month, the markets are presenting producer margins well above last year and the five-year average. As a matter of fact, and you know I find facts groovy, the model is suggesting that margins are at 20 (think Cesar Geronimo...one of the best baseball names ever) month highs. ![](https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/D4E12AQHJDMKUZtDJ9A/article-inline_image-shrink_1500_2232/0/1709754304984?e=1715817600&v=beta&t=129pjtOAgX4ZlkdPl_F8nUgUPXLJrDnmxnQICIHjoMU)   Datum FS is a supply chain and commodity intelligence organization.
