U.S. hog producers intend to have 2.91 million sows farrow during the December 2000-February 2001 quarter, 4
percent above the actual farrowings during the same period in 2000, and 1 percent above 1999. Intended
farrowings for March-May 2001, at 2.92 million sows, are 1 percent above the same period in 2000 but down 2
percent from 1999.
The number ofhog operations with hogs totaled 85,760 during 2000, down 13 percent from last year and 25
percent below 1998. Places with 2,000 or more hogs on hand accounted for 8 percent ofthe operations and 72
percent ofthe inventory. This is the fifth time operations with inventories over 2,000 head have controlled over
50 percent ofthe total inventory. The number ofoperations with over 5,000 head ofinventory at, 2,095,
accounted for 50.5 percent ofthe total inventory, up from 46.5 percent a year ago. The total number ofhogs
under contract, owned by these over 5,000 head operations, but raised by contractees, accounted for 30 percent of
the total U.S. hog inventory, down from 32 percent last year.
Revisions
All inventory and pig crop estimates for March 1999 through September 2000 were reviewed using final pig
crop, official slaughter, import, and export data in U.S. level balance sheets. Based on the findings ofthis review,
small adjustments ofless than one halfpercent were made to the inventory level for December 1, 1999; March 1,
2000; June 1, 2000; and September 1, 2000. Small adjustments ofless than one halfpercent were also made to
the March-May 1999, June-August 1999, September-November 1999, and June-August 2000 pig crops, and less
than one percent to the March-May 2000 pig crop.
SpecialNote
Included in this issue, is a new U.S. table with monthly estimates of sow and gilt inventory, and the number of
sows and gilts bred (page 20). This data along with monthly farrowing and pig crop estimates, will be included in
each Quarterly Hogs and Pigs release, and beginning in January 2001, in the new Monthly Hogs and Pigs release.
This report was approved on December 28, 2000.
