Federally inspected slaughter during August and September was about 10 percent above a year earlier. An increase of only 2 to 4 percent had been indicated by farrowing and hog inventory estimates in the June pig crop report. As a result of the larger marketings, early October hog prices were more than $4 per cwt. below early July and $3.50 lower than a year earlier.</p>articleisulib-bepress-aws-west288221836242farmscience/vol22/iss5/4Agriculture
