Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pork Marketing Margins and Costs This report on marketing margins and costs for pork is one of several such reports on food items that have been published or are planned by the United States Department of Agriculture for 1956. This group of reports, issued by the Marketing Research Division, Agricultural Marketing Service, is designed to meet a need for more information on farm-to-consumer price spreads on food. Recently, reports were issued on marketing margins and costs for beef, and on costs for food in general. The quarterly data on pork margins and costs that are shown in this report Will be pub lished currently in the Marketing and Transportation Situation. Farmers expect their prices to move up and down with changesin the volume of farm marketings. They also recognize the seasonal character of supply-price changes and many of them make adjust ments to meet such changes. Prob lems of greater magnitude develop, however, when drastic price declines take place that are out of line with normal expectations. This type of supply-price situation developed for hogs and pork in 1955 when prices for barrows and gilts declined more than would have been expected on the basis of past trends.
