Feed cheap cork to hogs urges Penn State economist
H Louis Moore, farm economist at Penn State, told Lancaster County farmers during his annual livestock forecast that feeder pigs at about 10 dollars a head can yield profits for hog producers with current market prices around 22 to 23 dollars per hundred. He argued corn below 1 dollar a bushel supports hog returns while beef cattle face poorer margins.
