Massive Hog Plant in Missouri to Begin April
Missouri agriculture commissioner James B. Boillot said the 180 million hog production complex near Kahoka Clark County should start pouring concrete around April 1 with initial breeder stock shipments about a month later. The project, backed by Chicago insurer Charles B. McQuaid, aims to handle about 2.5 million animals yearly, drawing opposition from the National Farmers Organization and scrutiny from U.S. Senator Eagleton over antitrust concerns. Boillot argues the plant will not doom small hog farmers and notes ongoing questions and nationwide impact assessments.

Control Of Farming Shifts From Farms
A new Agricultural Department study by Marshall Harris finds substantial elements of entrepreneurial control in farming moving from farms to off farm firms and government agencies. It notes acceleration due to tech changes, processing, marketing, and a push toward environmental and recreation goals, with 21,500 farming corporations cited in 1969. The report contrasts official assertions with critiques from the Agribusiness Accountability Project and FTC data on non-food corporate influence and contracts that favor firms, while also highlighting eminent domain and credit disparities.
