# All eyes on Thursday's Quarterly Hogs and Pigs report - Brownfield Ag News

> Analysts expect USDA's Thursday Hogs and Pigs report to show a 0.8% year-on-year decline in the hog herd as of September 1, with breeding stock down 0.4%. Allendale estimates the herd as the smallest in five years. Rising input costs and weak demand have contributed to herd liquidation.
