    The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is asking for public comments about updating the Poultry Standards, which help classify poultry based on quality. These standards were last significantly revised in 1998 and need to be modernized to include new technology and consumer preferences. AMS wants feedback on how to make these standards more relevant for current technologies, industry practices, and the needs of consumers, companies, and smaller poultry operations. The public can submit comments electronically or by mail by March 17, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The folks who decide how to sort and grade chickens in the U.S. are asking people to help them update their rules because things have changed a lot since they last did a big update in 1998, but they need to figure out some tricky stuff like using new tech and hearing from everyone fairly.
