<body>
<p>The U.S. Department of Agriculture&rsquo;s Agricultural Marketing Service proposes to amend the regulations issued under the Packers and Stockyards Act (P&amp;S Act). The proposal would revise the list of disclosures and information live poultry dealers must furnish to poultry growers and sellers with whom dealers make poultry growing arrangements. The proposal would further establish parameters for the use of poultry grower ranking systems by dealers to determine settlement payments for poultry growers. The proposals are intended to promote transparency in poultry production contracting and to give poultry growers relevant information with which to make business decisions.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
