A livestock economist says the hog industry could face some serious pressure in the last quarter of 2020. University of Missouri’s Scott Brown says there’s still a lot of hogs backed up in the supply chain from the COVID-related disruptions earlier this year.
Brown says it will likely get worse before it gets better. “We know we’re going to run into some weeks here in the last quarter where we’re like not going to stay as current as we’d like to be,” he says.
