Pork instead of corn proves costly for NC hog farms
North Carolina swine expert W. W. Shay notes eastern farmers lose about 15 dollars per acre by not feeding corn to hogs and marketing as pork. Feeding corn at 75 cents a bushel yields no profit if sold at the same price, while soybeans and pasture-backed hogs reduce output and quality, cutting profits further.
