In the midst of a nationwide run on chicken, poultry producer Pilgrim's Pride aims to grow its flocks—those on farms as well as the workers who staff processing lines in the Colorado company's plants.

Long term, Pilgrim's intends to lean more on robots. Mr. Sandri said the company is developing automated deboning systems that will begin functioning in plants soon. "We don't believe the labor force is going to increase significantly in the next few years," he said.
