Iowa Livestock Outlook Sees Stable 1940 Volumes
Iowa State College economists forecast no larger overall livestock sales in 1940, with hog prices influenced by the European war duration. They project higher pork demand if war continues, but a larger federally inspected hog slaughter is expected. Cattle feeding should remain strong domestically, with restocking likely for several years. Lamb feeders face favorable outlook amid higher feed costs and stable demand.
