Hog farmers face heat with dwindling corn and cattle like buyers
Kansas hog producer Bill Voigts and his brother tend 3000 pigs under a blistering heat wave. Drought and high temps shrink corn yields, forcing heavy irrigation and water spraying to keep pigs alive and growing. Hogs eat less, delaying market readiness and potentially denting short term prices while long term trends remain uncertain.

U S District Judge Gesell refused to halt the draft registration set to begin next week. The ACLU argued that requiring Social Security numbers on forms violates the 1975 Privacy Act and sought to delay registration or post notices making number submission optional. Gesell found no irreparable harm and favored proceeding with the program.
