The supply of hogs for the 1939-40 season was the greatest in five years, following the largest pig crop on record in 1939. The pig crop of 1939 was estimated at 86 million head. In 1940, the pig crop was reduced to 77 million head, and a considerable further reduction in 1941 was indicated by the pig crop report.
