FEEDSTUFFS PRECISION PORK Market Report - December 18

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 prepare for a new year.


There still a large book of 2020 purchases to be shipped to China
but those will likely be rolled into the new year rather than
canceled, say Bauer. There was a speed bump on the slaughter side
of things this past week as the Columbus Junction pork plant ran
into some mechanical issues and diverted hogs to other plants.
What has that done to slaughter numbers and what’s been the
market impact? What will the upcoming holidays mean for weekly
totals? Take a listen.


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.
