USDA's report based on October 29, 2026 slaughter data showed negotiated hogs at a weighted average net price near $64.88 per hundredweight. Other formula and purchase arrangement prices were also reported higher.
Negotiated hog prices set the cash benchmark for hog futures and feed demand, and the level suggests steady hog-sector margins for feed buyers.
After 61 past neutral report events, Lean Hogs moved a median -0.4% over 5 sessions (48% higher; middle half -1.3% to +1.8%), and +2.1% over 20.
