Open in new window Cash Flow Management For Hog Producers

Gary Schnitkey, Dale Lattz, and S. Gary Bullen ( July, 1999 )

Summary

Cash market hog prices have been below $20 per cwt. during the last part of 1998, their lowest levels since the early 1970s. At these price levels, hog producers are not covering cash production costs. Because cash costs are not covered, pork producers will have to find other funds to maintain their operations. In this paper, we first describe likely cash shortfalls and then discuss ways in which to deal with cash shortfalls.
