Kansas State University researchers found that a corn-based diet low in amino acids can extend time to market by about three and a half to four weeks. The approach was tested as a way to hold pigs on farms while packing plant capacity is limited by COVID-19.
The researchers expect packing capacity to stay tight this fall.
Holding hogs longer eases the farm backlog and reduces the risk of overweight market hogs, but it also changes feed formulation and feed demand on farms. The price effect on hogs is limited to the timing of marketings.
