Iowans to Market More Hogs in June and July 內
Iowa hog slaughter is forecast at about 2 060 000 head for June and July, per the Iowa Cooperative Crop and Livestock Reporting Service, based on farmer marketing intentions. This would be 7 percent higher than 1 926 000 in the prior period but 4 percent below the 1960-54 five year average of 2 145 000. If intentions materialize, hogs sold for slaughter in June would reflect this trend.
