Profitable to Increase Size of Fall Pig Crop
The article notes that expanding the fall pig crop is profitable for farmers with brood sows and equipment. Government pork purchases for Lend-Lease support, plus price guarantees through June 30 1943, make early fall farrowings favorable. Target: pigs 75 to 90 pounds by December 1 for best winter gains.
