Hog Producers Are Losing Race in Manitoba Swine Trade
Manitoba swine specialist D S Stevenson reports revised 1981 figures show only 29.4 percent of hogs marketed in the province were Grade A. Grade distribution overall was 44.4 percent Grade B, 9.4 percent Grade C, and 6.3 percent sows. Manitoba ranks eighth for Grade A, behind Alberta. Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia lead with 58.7 and 51.8 percent Grade A. Stevenson urges marketing at about 195 pounds to boost Grade A share and profitability through better breeding, feeding and management.
