Pork producers are feeling the effects of inflation.
National Pork Producers Council president Terry Wolters, a pork producer from Pipestone in southwest Minnesota, says inflation causes many challenges.
“We’ve had increased input costs, fuel, transportation, all of those costs have continued to rise. And without question is it impacting our profitability.”
He tells Brownfield the futures market is not allowing pork producers an opportunity to offset inflated input costs.
