Hog price rebound after week of slump noted
County Extension Director Richard Math ews reports that by June 23 hog prices had regained most of the prior week’s slump at Chicago. Iowa State College economist Donald J. Hunter cites a wide price spread between sows and medium weight butchers, with heavy sow receipts in St. Paul and interior towns. Fall-furrowed pigs and lighter weights contribute to marketing shifts amid cooler pork demand.
