Hog price outlook favors producers in 1966 Iowa report

Iowa State University economist Gene Futrell forecasts 1966 hog prices will be favorable for producers through spring and summer with higher fall prices than 1965 but below last year. Interior prices for U S 1-3s and 200-240 lb butchers are seen at 22 to 23 dollars in Jan-March, supported by breeding stock up 4 percent and rising farrowings. Strong economy should sustain demand. October-December prices could fall to 18-19 if 8-10 percent March-May farrowings occur.
