Update: 2025-12-27
Description
Lean hog futures experienced a downward trend this week, with February futures slightly increasing. The USDAs national base hog price was sixty-seven dollars nineteen cents, while the CME Lean Hog Index dipped a penny. Closing prices for February, April, and May futures all decreased. The USDAs pork carcass cutout value rose, but belly prices surged while loin, butt, and picnic cuts declined. Hog slaughter was lower than last week and down from the same week a year ago. The market remains cautious, with traders closely monitoring supply trends and cutout values for future movements.
