Feudalism charge at hog plant sparks NFU warning
The National Farmers Union warned that a planned 25 million hog processing plant in Taber Alberta could create corporate feudalism if farmers sign marketing and pricing contracts. The NFU fears contracted hogs could bypass the Alberta Hog Producers Marketing Board and allow the company to set lower prices, with export plans to Southeast Asia raising additional market risks. The NFU urged price protection and careful consideration of Asian market dependence.
