Cargill Commercial Swine Director Mark Hulsebus takes a look at the feed and hog markets, and examines what current lean hog prices and futures contracts tell us about profit opportunities for producers in 2023.
In this episode of Feedstuffs Precision Pork, Mark Hulsebus, Swine Commercial Director at Cargill, offers some animal feed and hog market perspective.
With harvest in the books, we look ahead to the December quarterly Hogs and Pigs report due out from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and discuss the current supply situation with regard to lean hogs.
Hulsebus also discusses the current demand picture for pork and how that's reflected in lean hog futures, and provides an outlook on what the profit picture looks like over the next 12 months and where opportunities to lock in profits might exist.
These are uncertain times, and it will pay dividends to be well-prepared. If you have questions on this week’s episode or want to discuss something not covered, feel free to ASK MARK at mark_hulsebus@cargill.com.
