Show Feed Grinding For Small Pigs Is Not Economical Dick Carlisle, livestock specialist in the Illinois College of Agriculture, reports that pigs under 150 poun.-ts 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. |
