Grain Marketing Co. Revival Hopes Faltering

Washington July 6 The Grain Marketing Co of Chicago faced a likely end as stock sales to farmers lagged and financial support dwindled. Ros enbaum Brothers engineered a plan with Armour Grain and others to form a cooperative elevator model, but farmers distrusted sources tied to private grain firms. The failure threatens a major push to unite farmers nationwide under a private cooperative system and could revive calls for federal marketing intervention.

Fewer Feeder Pigs Bought Outside of State This Season

Des Moines reports show in the first six months of the year Iowa farmers bought 22,732 feeder pigs from outside the state, down from 50,828 in the same period 10 years earlier. The drop is linked to last year’s light corn crop and abundant hogs, with home raised pigs meeting demand. A cornbelt survey notes a 20 percent fall in sows farrowing this spring, yet about 89 percent as many pigs saved as last year due to favorable weather and feed. Iowa towns marketed 13,700,000 pigs last year, far ahead of peers.
