(KSL News) Utah government officials could help the state's turkey industry. Eyewitness News has confirmed that the Governor's Office of Economic Development is trying to come up with ways to help the Moroni Feed Company.

We first told you last week that the company, which produces the Norbest label of turkeys, has had to cut production because of the rising cost of corn and fuel. The company said it would shut down operations for three months this fall, which would be a major blow to the economy of Sanpete County.

But tonight, a spokeswoman for the Governor and the head of the Office of Economic Development, Jason Perry, say the groups have started talking about possibilities to help Moroni Feed.
