Hog price declines and farm supply shifts impact 1971 outlook
Hog prices have slipped as supply increases and demand wanes. Slaughter is up 15 to 38 percent from last year due to larger spring and summer pig crops, with spring crops up about 2 percent and summer crops higher. Prices may recover toward $20 next summer, but fall levels depend on spring pig crops and farmer intentions to borrow. Platte County farmers push water management to curb soil erosion, adopting practices to retain moisture and reduce runoff, including terraces and detention structures, with Extension staff urging Christmas wishes and farm steadiness.
