Livestock outlook optimistic for Iowa in 1965
Iowa State University economist Gene Futrell reports stronger 1965 prospects for hogs cattle and beef demand. Hog profits should rise on improved farrowing and lower 1964 fall crop losses while cattle feeding profits rebound with lower feeder prices and better fed cattle prices early 1965. Beef production may match rising demand as population and incomes grow supported by higher prices in mid 1965. Sheep and lamb numbers fall again with a smaller lamb crop boosting prices above 1964 levels.
