FEEDSTUFFS PRECISION PORK Market Report – January 29

In this episode of Feedstuffs Precision Pork, Erin Holmes, Ph.D.,
swine nutritionist with Provimi, fills in for host Dave Bauer.
She offers some hog market perspective and market highlights for
the week as well as provides some tips on how to efficiently
manage nutrition in the face of high feed costs.

The recent rally in ingredient prices continues to hold. Have we
reached a point where prices have demanded acres for this spring?
Holmes believes perhaps we have. 


In South America, rains are hindering harvest and replanting of
the next crop. At the same time, export demand for U.S. soy to
Europe is on the rise. 

In China, reports are that there were large purchases of ethanol
and corn this week. This has fueled the market. This is the
largest purchase of ethanol seen by China. What’s ahead? Holmes
explains.

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
