FEEDSTUFFS PRECISION PORK Market Report - May 1

We are watching and living yet another week of history being
created as there's not just one industry being impacted by this
growing economy, but we're seeing and living through changes in
all aspects of business and all production industries. Also,
changing is how we live as families, the way our kids go to
school and more. These are all things that Provimi market analyst
Dave Bauer explains in this week’s episode will likely be forever
changed, including the ways we shop for prepare and consumer
meals.

“The old cliche that one day we'll tell our grandchildren about
this time has never been more true, and I also believe on the
backside of this adversity, our grandkids will have a great new
world to thrive in,” says Bauer.

On the hog side of things, the headlines have been changing by
the hour regarding slaughter plant closings and re-openings.
Bauer explains the best way to gauge the current situation is not
through these closing but rather to look at actual slaughter
numbers. He digs into that for us.


Likewise, pork exports continued their historic pace, which has
helped the domestic market considerably. Bauer says hog industry
leaders and allied professionals are doing a great job of working
collectively through these difficult times and he explains why he
believes a corner may have been turned this week. 


These are uncertain times and it will pay dividends to be
well-prepared. If you have questions on this week's recap or want
