POULTRY
Georgia hosts the International Poultry Trade Show each year, and chickens are the largest agricultural commodity in the state, accounting for almost $2.5 billion in income each year (2002).
The term fresh on a poultry label refers to any raw poultry product that has never been below 26 °F. Raw poultry held at 0 °F or below must be labeled frozen or previously frozen. No specific labeling is required on raw poultry stored at temperatures between 0-25 °F.
