Prices show top grades softening while lower grades rise with new feeder cattle highs and heavy stocker activity reported across the Corn Belt.

Need More Fall Pigs This Year
E L Quaife of Iowa State College urges Iowa farmers to raise 15 percent more sows for fall farrowing than in 1946. Fall pigs should be farrowed by Sept 15, with sows in good flesh after weaning and before breeding. He notes corn and legume pasture support, recommends protein supplements, and argues Iowa’s feed carryover supports a strong fall pig crop despite a lighter 1946 fall and 1947 spring.
