Iowa Farm Outlook: December Hogs and Pigs

2013-01-04 01:00:00| ThePigSite - Industry News

US - USDA released the Quarterly Hogs and Pigs report December 28 with estimates of December 1 inventories. Much discussion leading up to the report called for a decline in inventory numbers as a result of this year’s cost levels and significant red ink. Somewhat surprising to many, was that the report told us that the reduction has been very minimal and actually there has been a little bit of expansion of the breeding herd, writes Lee Schulz, Iowa State University.
