Former Otley Hog Farmer Believes In Good Management

Ed Klyn of Pella, a lifelong hog farmer and part time janitor at Rosscreen Co., says hog farming runs in his blood. He farms 12 sows twice yearly on a 10 acre site east of Pella and sells livestock where prices seek the best deal, noting pork values swing daily and aren’t fair.

Steenhoek hog operation plans expansion near Pella

Gary and Dave Steenhoek, with father Gilford, run a family hog farm east of Pella producing about 700 hogs a year. They are building a 400-500 head shed and emphasize careful management, market timing, and importances of staying in the business despite price fluctuations. They note disease is less of a threat due to vaccines, but rhinitis in older hogs and high lysine corn feed pose ongoing challenges and opportunities.
