Hog producers optimistic says UW swine expert in 1981 outlook

UW Madison swine specialist Carl W Hirschinger urges hog producers to stay optimistic for 1981 as cash markets soften slightly yet futures imply strong potential. He cites December pigs finishing at about 59.25 dollars per head, translating to 56.80 per hundredweight, with break even near 51.69 and margins over five dollars per hundredweight.

Corn sweeteners lift demand and push corn prices higher

The Agriculture Department links rising corn prices to strong demand for sweeteners from wet milling and HFCS. A skimpy harvest and high sugar prices push exports up, with 1981 wet-milling use projected above 500 million bushels. Per capita HFCS intake rises, surpassing glucose syrup for the first time, while the 6.46 billion bushel 1980 crop keeps prices elevated.
