Economists shedding light on pork industry market conditions

Associate Professor Lee Schulz was interviewed by Iowa Agribusiness Radio Network for the article "Economists shedding light on pork industry market conditions," which focuses on the difficulties some pork producers are facing as the cost of production is not balancing market prices. Schulz told IARN that “They’re realizing the fiscal policy, the monetary policy, those are all impacting producer profits. And that’s what producers are responding to, that’s what drives expansion and contractionary plans and execution by producers. And all of those factors I think are working towards the negative for producers.”
