Farmers urged to boost pork supply with sow breeding
Michigan State College expert Warren W. McMillen says farmers can increase pork in markets by breeding sows and gilts for fall farrow, feeding spring pigs to heavier weights, and improving feeding and management to reduce losses. He notes profits rise as the hog market brightens, with government support for heavier pig weights dependent on grain yields.
