US Turkey Methodology Change Notice

Expana is a leading source for price reporting in the US Turkey sector and regularly solicits feedback from stakeholders to ensure that our coverage reflects current trading conditions and practices.

In keeping with our commitment to provide the most meaningful and transparent market information to stakeholders, Expana proposes the following additions to existing U.S. turkey market coverage: 

Proposed effective date: On September 2, 2025, Expana proposes adding a Forward Looking Frozen Whole Turkey Pricing table:

Size Range	60-90 Days	91-120 Days	121+ Days
10-16 lbs.	–	–	–
16-22 lbs.	–	–	–

 

This latest enhancement further supports Expana’s commitment to advancing market transparency within the U.S. turkey sector by aligning with the industry’s standard practice of forward booking frozen whole-body turkeys, especially in advance of the holiday season. It provides greater price visibility for confirmed bulk of sale transactions executed during the specified delivery windows, which were previously outside the purview of our reporting methodology.

The methodology document posted at www.expanamarkets.com/our-methodology will be amended to reflect these changes, which is proposed to go into effect on September 2, 2025. 

Stakeholders can provide input on the proposed changes during a comment period which will take place from August 1, 2025, to August 15, 2025. Remarks will be published on Expana’s market reporting methodology page at https://www.expanamarkets.com/our-methodology/market-announcements/
