§ 69. Mr. Rankinasked the Minister of Agriculture how egg producers, with more than a flock of 25 hens, who are not in the pool, are able, under his regulations, to obtain feed for their hens.
§ Sir T. DugdaleEgg producers can draw a bonus ration of feedingstuffs on producing evidence of disposal of eggs to a licensed packing station. In addition, whether or not they sell eggs, poultry keepers can draw basic rations if their holding was registered as carrying 9W poultry in 1939 or 1940, or rations under the extended scheme if their holding is over one acre. These rations may be augmented by unrationed feedingstuffs such as dried grass and certain cereal byproducts.
