I read the following January news article by Caroline Christen and thought it would be good information to share. The article shares some interesting numbers and information that we may not always receive from other sources when we are reading or listening to pork news. Caroline talks about top pork producing states, the pork industry size and value, the number of pork producers in the United States, and shares who the largest producers are. I hope you find as much value in the article as I did.
