Abstract
Hog litter rates have experienced significant changes that affect the overall production of pork. An econometric model is used to estimate the impact of prices and technology on hog litter rates. Results from the model show how litter rates respond to changes in prices as well as how much of the growth can be attributed to improvements in technology.
