Hog industry faces revenue rise as hogs outlook improves
A Blue Valley Institute survey from Chicago projects a 12 to 18 month period of higher hog prices and lower production costs due to a 7 percent U.S. spring pig crop drop from 1927. The report forecasts a 3.5 to 4.4 million head fall in combined spring and fall pig crops in the Corn Belt, with total hog slaughter under federal inspection around 49 million in 1928 and about 45 million if tighter supply reduces output.
