Southwide hog production waning despite southern demand
A 1920s agricultural report notes hog production rose across the corn belt into 1924 while the South lagged. Declines in the South are tied to poor grain crops and farms abandoning hogs as a profitable line. Georgia and other states import meat despite local potential, with hog per person ratios shrinking from 55-10 in 1922 to 4 5-200 by 1924, suggesting missed opportunities for regional self-sufficiency.
