Penn Packing (Continued from Pace AX) ligher expected marketing lumbers through the remainder of jie year and increased feed costs lue to both PIK and the drought. As far as hog numbers are xmcemed, marketings are still expected to be up some 10 percent through the remainder of the year. To combat the pork glut, producers have been urged to market at lighter weights and then cut back on breeding herd size. And, while some effects of PIK and the drought have already been felt, noone really knows yet what the full effects will be. Those will have to await harvest. This year, farmers may finally find out how accurate those billions-of-bushels figures that the USDA throws around really are. As Payment-In-Kind payoffs are made, it may finally be known how much com there really is in storage. And when the combines get in the fields - or stay out because of the drought - there may be a better idea of just what this year’s yields may be. So, with this extra amount of uncertainty facing hog finishers (and other livestock operators as well), is it any wonder that any favorable market sign will be welcomed.

You get heavier corn with over 50% less shrinkage than heat drying, that means more grain in your bin. Better Grain Quality With AeroDry drying, grain isn’t cracked or damaged by heat. More natural starches, sugars and other nutrients are retained for better feed quality and higher test weights. Tax Benefits AeroDry Systems qualify for up to a 15% energy credit in the form of an investment tax credit. Added to the 10% grain storage investment credit, that’s a total credit of 25% The AeroDry System can be installed in any new or existing bin up to 16 feet high.
