FEEDSTUFFS PRECISION PORK Market Report – February 12

In this episode of Feedstuffs Precision Pork, Dave Bauer, senior
market analyst for Provimi, offers some hog market perspective
and market highlights for the week as well as provides things to
think about as we enter the new year.

Does the Earth feel like it just may be tipping a bit? Well it
just may be says Bauer because of a large migration happening on
the opposite side of the world. Starting today and through the
17th of the month, the Chinese people are celebrating the year of
the ox and it is historically when 1.4 billion people travel home
and spend time with family. That also means news out of China
will be at a stand still until everyone returns to work in a
couple of weeks. For global markets that means essentially a
standstill until the Chinese return to back to work. What might
this mean for the hog industry? What too is going on with rogue
virus strains of African swine fever in the Chinese market? Bauer
shares his insight.


These are uncertain times and it will pay dividends to be
well-prepared. If you have questions on this week’s recap or want
to discuss something not covered, feel free to ASK DAVE

tomorrow’s success.
