Declining hog prices still provide profit outlook
The Agriculture Department forecast lower hog prices this year but said most producers will still earn margins. Hog production rose 10 percent in the first half of 1966 and is expected to grow in the late year and early 1967 as farmers expand after favorable prices. The hog to corn price ratio stood near 18 to 1 in July and remains around that level, signaling favorable production incentives despite price dips.
