(Bloomberg) U.S. hog farmers are likely to churn out fewer piglets in 2021 after the coronavirus pandemic closed pork-processing plants and sent animal prices tumbling earlier this year.
The number of sows retained for breeding fell 3% to 6.28 million, the lowest since March 2018, U.S. Department of Agriculture data showed Wednesday. Analysts in a Bloomberg survey projected a 1.9% annual drop.
The overall U.S. hog herd fell 0.9% to 77.5 million. Analysts expected 78.4 million. © Bloomberg U.S. inventory held in check by fewer breeding hogs
