Canadian Prairie Hog Growth

Increasing Concentration, Integration, and Specialization

• Loss of 597,000 hog operations since 1980• Only 10% of hogs spot marketed• Top 20 “pork powerhouses” have 2.6 million sows

and account for over 40% of marketings• Over 70% of processing capacity by 5 packers• Multi-site specialized confinement production

systems integrating farrow-to-wean with wean-to-finish and market contracting

Hog Prices and Production Costs

• Price trends reflect economic forces of supply and demand

• Feed represents 65-70% of the cost of producing pigs (hog to corn ratio)

• Tendency for a 3-4 year “hog cycle”• Tendency for seasonal fall lows• Over 70% of hogs sold on carcass merit basis• Low grain prices and new technologies have

contributed to reduced costs• Rising grain price, and inflation cause for concern
