Multiple Farrowing Proposed To Stabilize Hog Market

The swine council endorses a year round hog supply through a two-batch farrowing plan. Farmers would split sows into two groups and farrow 90 days apart to smooth prices and prevent market gluts. Benefits include steadier sow production and more efficient use of equipment and labor.
