Feed Grinding For Small Pigs Is Not Economical Dick Carlisle, livestock specialist in the Illinois College of Agriculture, reports that pigs under 150 pounds chew their food so well that farmers seldom save enough feed by grinding grind-ing to pay for the cost of grinding. But for hogs above 150 pounds, grinding will save about five percent per-cent of the corn. If the cost of grinding grind-ing 100 pounds Is less than the value of five pounds, it pays to grind for hogs over 150 pounds.
