Pig Site analysis from March 29 notes June lean hog futures remain in an uptrend near 15-month highs, with the CME cash hog index at $83.69. Analysts expect the upcoming USDA Hogs & Pigs report to show a herd roughly flat year on year, with the breeding herd down 3.5%.
A smaller expected breeding herd and steady demand support hog prices, though the quarterly report could shift supply expectations and the seasonal early-April softness may limit gains.
