US Swine Economics Report
US - On 27 March USDA will release the results of their latest survey of the US swine inventory. My estimates are that the breeding herd is 1.9 per cent smaller than a year ago, the market hog inventory is 3.9 per cent smaller, and the total herd is 3.7 per cent smaller than on 1 March 2008, writes Professor Ron Plain in his Swine Economics Report.
