    Description

    Hogs and pigs are one of the main sources of meat in the United States, and there is a thriving domestic pork market. As of March 2024, Iowa had an inventory of about 25.1 million hogs and pigs, making it the top producer of swine in the country by a large margin. In that same year, the second largest producer of hogs and pigs was Minnesota, with about nine million head. Swine Production Pigs have several advantages over other livestock. They are good at converting animal feed into meat and do not require large grazing areas. In addition, almost every part of the pig can be eaten or processed, making them an efficient source of meat. Thus, raising pigs for consumption is a good investment for small-scale farmers and factory farms alike. Pork Market in the U.S. Some of the classic staples of an American breakfast are bacon, sausage, or ham, which are all pork products. Pork is one of the most frequently consumed types of meat in the United States with the average American consuming about 51.1 pounds of pork per year as of 2020. In 2022, over 27 billion pounds of pork were produced in the United States.

    Description

    Data are derived from generalized linear models and model selection techniques using 129 estimates of population density of wild pigs (Sus scrofa) from 5 continents. Models were used to determine the strength of association among a diverse set of biotic and abiotic factors associated with wild pig population dynamics. The models and associated factors were used to predict the potential population density of wild pigs at the 1 km resolution. Predictions were then compared with available population estimates for wild pigs on their native range in North America indicating the predicted densities are within observed values.

    Key Drivers for Pig Farming Market

    Increasing Demand for Pork to Propel the Market Revenue Growth

    The demand for pork, a major source of protein in many diets, has increased due to the expanding worldwide population, especially in emerging economies. Urbanization, shifting food tastes, and growing disposable incomes are some of the causes driving this demand. For instance, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, a higher-than-expected February production led to a 30 million increase in the first-quarter commercial pork production to 7.2 billion pounds. It is anticipated that 27.9 billion pounds of commercial pork would be produced in 2024, a 2.2% increase over the previous year. It is predicted that the average live price of 51–52 percent lean pigs will be $61 per cwt, which is 3.7% more than in 2023. Due to increased demand from significant importing nations and declining EU pork competitiveness as a result of higher prices and decreased supply, pork exports are expected to increase by 50 million pounds by 2024. Pork exports are predicted to total 7.1 billion pounds in 2024, 4.6 percent more than shipments from the previous year.

    Rising Food Demand to Propel Market Growth

    The growing food demand is expected to drive the pig farming market during the forecast period. The world's population is continually increasing, and with it, the demand for food rises. As more people require sustenance, there's a proportional increase in the demand for protein sources like pork. As per the report published by Food and Agriculture Organization, between 2009 and 2050, the world's population is predicted to increase by more than a third, or 2.3 billion people. Based on the forecasts, it would be necessary to increase global food production by around 70% between 2005/07 and 2050 to feed the 9.1 billion people that will live the planet by then.

    Description

    Invasive wild pigs (Sus scrofa), also called feral swine or wild hogs, are recognized as among the most destructive invasive species in the world. Throughout the United States, invasive wild pigs have expanded rapidly over the past 30 years with populations now established in 38 states. Of the estimated 6.9 million wild pigs distributed throughout the United States, Texas supports approximately 40% of the population and similarly bears disproportionate ecological and economic costs. Genetic analyses are an effective tool for understanding invasion pathways and tracking dispersal of invasive species such as wild pigs and have been used recently in California and Florida, USA, which have similarly long-established populations and high densities of wild pigs. Our goals were to use molecular approaches to elucidate invasion and migration processes shaping wild pig populations throughout Texas, compare our results with patterns of genetic structure observed in California and Florida, and provide insights for effective management of this invasive species. We used a high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array to evaluate population genetic structure. Genetic clusters of wild pigs throughout Texas demonstrate 2 distinct patterns: weakly resolved, spatially dispersed clusters and well-resolved, spatially localized clusters. The disparity in patterns of genetic structure suggests disparate processes are differentially shaping wild pig populations in various localities throughout the state. Our results differed from the patterns of genetic structure observed in California and Florida, which were characterized by localized genetic clusters. These differences suggest distinct biological and perhaps anthropogenic processes are shaping genetic structure in Texas. Further, these disparities demonstrate the need for location-specific management strategies for controlling wild pig populations and mitigating associated ecological and economic costs.

    Measurement technique
    <p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Sample Collection<br></strong>Between 2012 and 2020, blood, hair, and tissue samples were collected from adult feral swine (n = 2,490) throughout the invaded range within the contiguous United States as an extension of damage management efforts led by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Wildlife Services (WS).<br><br><strong>Serological Assay<br></strong>Serum samples were tested for PRV antibodies at the Kentucky Federal Brucellosis Laboratory (Frankfort, Kentucky, USA) using the "short protocol" for Pseudorabies–gB Enzyme–Linked Immunosorbent Assay (PRV–gB ELISA; IDEXX Laboratories Inc., Westbrook, Maine, USA). Samples were considered positive for PRV if the S/N value ≤ 0.60 and negative if the S/N value > 0.70.</p> <p><strong>Genotype Data<br></strong>DNA extraction and genotyping were conducted at GeneSeek (Neogen Corporation, Lincoln, Nebraska, USA). DNA extraction was performed using the MagMAX™ DNA Multi-Sample Ultra Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) and genotyping was completed using the GeneSeek Genomic Profiler (GGP) for Porcine 80k array (68,516 loci; Illumina BeadChip microarrays [San Diego, California, USA] licensed exclusive to GeneSeek, Neogen Corporation, [Lincoln, Nebraska, USA]). Bi–allelic SNP were mapped to the Sscrofa11.1 reference genome assembly (Warr et al., 2020), and unmapped and non–autosomal markers were removed, leaving 62,128 loci for further consideration. Standard quality control filters for genotype data were implemented using SNP & Variation Suite (SVS; version 8.9.0; Golden Helix, Bozeman, Montana, USA), specifically removing samples with call rates < 0.90 and then pruning loci with call rates < 0.90 or minor allele frequency < 0.05. Following quality control measures, 56,024 SNP were retained.</p> <p><strong>True Seroprevalence for PRV<br></strong>True seroprevalence for PRV, accounting for imperfect detection was predicted for each year in each watershed (hydrological unit code [HUC] eight). Predictions were made using a hierarchical Bayesian model with 28,030 feral swine sampled across 37 states in the contiguous United States between 2010 and 2020. Similar to the paired genetic and serological samples that serve as the focus of this study, these samples were more broadly collected (temporally and spatially) by USDA APHIS Wildlife Services as a component of disease surveillance and population control efforts.</p> <p><strong>Percent European Wild Boar Ancestry<br></strong><span>The methods described in Smyser et al. (2020) were used to estimate the percent European wild boar ancestry of individual feral swine included in our analysis. Briefly, ADMIXTURE (Alexander et al. 2009) was used in a supervised framework to query an individual genotype against a comprehensive reference set for <em>Sus scrofa</em>, comprised of 105 domestic breeds, 23 wild boar populations, and 4 sister taxa. This method proportionately associates the origin of individual feral swine genotypes among the 17 ancestry groups that comprise the <em>Sus scrofa</em> wild–domestic species complex reference set.<br></span></p> <p><strong>References</strong></p> <p class="EndNoteBibliography">Alexander, D.H., Novembre, J., and Lange, K.

    Description

    Pseudorabies virus (PRV) – the causative agent of Aujeszky's disease – was eliminated from commercial pig production herds in the United States (US) in 2004; however, PRV remains endemic among invasive feral swine (Sus scrofa). The circulation of PRV among abundant, widespread feral swine populations poses a sustained risk for disease spillover to production herds. Risk–based surveillance has been successfully implemented for PRV in feral swine populations in the US. However, understanding the role of host genetics in infection status may offer new insights into the epidemiology and disease dynamics of PRV that can be applied to management strategies. Genetic mechanisms underlying host susceptibility to PRV are relatively unknown; therefore, we sought to identify genomic regions associated with PRV infection status among naturally infected feral swine using genome–wide association studies (GWAS) and gene set enrichment analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism data (GSEA–SNP). Paired serological and genotypic data were collected from 6,081 feral swine distributed across the invaded range within the contiguous US. Three complementary study populations were developed for GWAS: 1) comprehensive population consisting of feral swine throughout the invaded range within the contiguous US; 2) population of feral swine under high, but temporally variable PRV infection pressure; and 3) population of feral swine under temporally stable, high PRV infection pressure. We identified one intronic SNP associated with PRV infection status within candidate gene AKAP6 on autosome 7. Various gene sets linked to metabolic pathways were enriched in the GSEA–SNP. Ultimately, improving disease surveillance efforts in feral swine will be critical to further understanding of the role host genetics play in PRV infection status, helping secure the health of commercial pork production.

    Description

    Livestock distribution in the United States (U.S.) can only be mapped at a county-level or worse resolution. We developed a spatial microsimulation model called the Farm Location and Agricultural Production Simulator (FLAPS) that simulated the distribution and populations of individual livestock farms throughout the conterminous U.S. Using domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domesticus) as an example species, we customized iterative proportional-fitting algorithms for the hierarchical structure of the U.S. Census of Agriculture and imputed unpublished state- or county-level livestock population totals that were redacted to ensure confidentiality. We used a weighted sampling design to collect data on the presence and absence of farms and used them to develop a national-scale distribution model that predicted the distribution of individual farms at a 100 m resolution. We implemented microsimulation algorithms that simulated the populations and locations of individual farms using output from our imputed Census of Agriculture dataset and distribution model. Approximately 19% of county-level pig population totals were unpublished in the 2012 Census of Agriculture and needed to be imputed. Using aerial photography, we confirmed the presence or absence of livestock farms at 10,238 locations and found livestock farms were correlated with open areas, cropland, and roads, and also areas with cooler temperatures and gentler topography. The distribution of swine farms was highly variable, but cross-validation of our distribution model produced an area under the receiver-operating characteristics curve value of 0.78, which indicated good predictive performance. Verification analyses showed FLAPS accurately imputed and simulated Census of Agriculture data based on absolute percent difference values of < 0.01% at the state-to-national scale, 3.26% for the county-to-state scale, and 0.03% for the individual farm-to-county scale. Our output data have many applications for risk management of agricultural systems including epidemiological studies, food safety, biosecurity issues, emergency-response planning, and conflicts between livestock and other natural resources.

    In 2024, around ***** million metric tons of pork was produced in China, a slight decrease from around ***** million tons in the previous year. In 2019 and 2020, the market was affected by a major African swine fever outbreak in the country, which started in mid-2018 and lasted for over a year. Pork industry in China China has the largest hog heard in the world and accounts for more than a half of the global pig population. Around 60 percent of China’s entire meat industry output is pork. Pork is also by far the most favored and most consumed type of meat in the Chinese diet. The domestic per capita consumption of pork remained the highest among all fresh meat products, and is expected to increase. To meet the growing demand, China imports over *** million metric tons of pork annually. In 2023, pork import volume fell back to *****million tons from **** million tons in 2020 as a result of increased domestic production. WH Group WH Group (formerly Shuanghui Group) is China’s leading meat processing company and the largest pork company in the world. In 2013, the corporation acquired Smithfield Foods, the largest pork processing company in the United States. In 2024, WH Group generated a total revenue of around ******billion U.S. dollars, mostly from packaged meat products and fresh pork. The company owns pig farms and production bases in China, the United States, and Europe.

Description

Hogs and pigs are one of the main sources of meat in the United States, and there is a thriving domestic pork market. As of March 2024, Iowa had an inventory of about 25.1 million hogs and pigs, making it the top producer of swine in the country by a large margin. In that same year, the second largest producer of hogs and pigs was Minnesota, with about nine million head. Swine Production Pigs have several advantages over other livestock. They are good at converting animal feed into meat and do not require large grazing areas. In addition, almost every part of the pig can be eaten or processed, making them an efficient source of meat. Thus, raising pigs for consumption is a good investment for small-scale farmers and factory farms alike. Pork Market in the U.S. Some of the classic staples of an American breakfast are bacon, sausage, or ham, which are all pork products. Pork is one of the most frequently consumed types of meat in the United States with the average American consuming about 51.1 pounds of pork per year as of 2020. In 2022, over 27 billion pounds of pork were produced in the United States.
