Delays In Livestock Feed, Live Poultry Prompts Order From Transportation Cabinet

Recent winter weather across the country has caused delays in the supply chain of livestock feed and live poultry. On Friday, Transportation Secretary Jim Gray signed an official order temporarily suspending certain restrictions for carriers transporting live poultry and livestock feed. According to a statement from the Transportation Cabinet, the order temporarily relieves maximum drive times and weigh station stops for commercial drivers transporting feed and live poultry. The order is in effect through March 2 and should relieve distribution and delivery problems.
