Hog Price Outlook Shifts With Market Signals
Agricultural economists at Iowa State College link hog price trends to the hog-corn ratio and liquidation of hogs. They note lighter hog weights and earlier seasonal lows, with potential larger price gains from fall to spring. The 1939-40 average price was about $5.50, with large domestic supplies and small exports. For 1940-41, prospects point to reduced hog supplies and stronger demand, pushing prices higher than 1939-40.

Iowa Soybeans Yield Record Crop in 1940
Iowa State college extension agronomist B S Dyas reports the 1940 soybean crop in Iowa is large and high quality. Moisture tests show beans at 20 to 30 percent, needing 14 to 15 percent for combining. Use of a properly operated combine saves harvesting costs and reduces shattering losses. The state’s 1940 crop is the largest on record, with an estimated 684 000 acres to yield about 13 680 000 bushels, up from last year’s 10 227 000 and above the 10-year average of 2 714 000 bushels.
