Feeder pig prices

[farmguy1115963]

A couple miles from me is a very large hog facility that produces 12 to 15 lb. feeder pigs. The manager said they were getting $9 per pig. Is that possible? As a former hog raiser I know how low that price is. Or is someone pulling my leg? thanks farmguy

I wouldn`t doubt it #50 feeder pigs bring $25 at the salebarn.    The moral of the story is don`t be in a business that costs more to idle temporarily than to keep producing and if all your competitors are in the same boat..... uff-dah!
