Hog market plan aims to stabilize prices after remote shifts
A Washington conference of the Live Stock Subcommittee and swine representatives, with packers and Food Administration members, concludes that price stabilization must shift from fixed corn-based targets to a live hog price policy. The plan sets minimum packer purchase prices for November and establishes a monitoring committee to enforce market discipline, urging producers to avoid flooding the market and to maintain cost-justified prices amid ongoing export demand.
