Beef and Pork Marketing Margins and Price Spreads during COVID-19JEL codes

Jayson L. Lusk et al.

Summary: COVID-19-related disruptions have caused a historic rise in the spread between livestock and wholesale meat prices, leading to concerns about market concentration and anticompetitive behavior. Investigations and civil suits by the USDA and DOJ have focused on price differentials. The article discusses the difference between price spreads and marketing margins, outlines economic theory, and presents empirical evidence on wholesale meat and livestock price dynamics post-COVID-19.

Nutritional approaches to slow late finishing pig growth: implications on carcass composition and pork quality

Emma T. Helm et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the efficacy of dietary strategies to slow growth in late finishing pigs and their effects on carcass composition and pork quality. The results showed that several dietary strategies can slow finishing pig growth without behavioral vices, but changes to carcass composition and quality were also observed. Quality should be considered when choosing diets to slow growth.

Evaluation of increased fiber, decreased amino acids, or decreased electrolyte balance as dietary approaches to slow finishing pig growth rates

Emma T. Helm et al.

Summary: The study found that reducing amino acids and adding calcium chloride can effectively slow down the growth of pigs. In the experiment, increasing neutral detergent fiber did not affect growth performance parameters.

Evaluation of nutritional strategies to slow growth rate then induce compensatory growth in 90-kg finishing pigs

Zhong-Xing Rao et al.

Summary: Feeding lysine-restricted diets reduced the average daily gain (ADG) and feed efficiency (G:F) of finishing pigs. Compensatory growth can be induced in lysine-restricted finishing pigs, but the duration of restriction and recovery impacts the magnitude of compensatory growth.
