Production Is | Growing Profitable ('It'inson, May l?> Pork production 1 tit South Carolina is becoming inor?? profitable an<l is likely to tin roaao during the next soverul yours, at least to the extent of suppl>ing Inane needs tor pork Sueli is the encouraging opinion of Marvin Guln, assistant agricultural economist of tlu> South Carj olina Experiment Station, whose re| cent investigations of the hog enterprise haw been published ut Station j Bulletin 305, An Economic Study of ! Hog Production and Murketing in j South Carolina, South Carolina is a deficit corn and hog producing state, explains Mr. Guln, hut large areas of the state are adapted to corn and hog production because of climatic and marketing advantages. Thus hog production In the state depends mainly on: competition with the Corn Belt states which have a number of comparative advantages; competition with cotton, tobacco and other local enterprises; and efficiency in production. Pork production is still a minor enterprise in South Carolina us compared with cotton, the total value of hogs produced in the state in 1932 being about one-sixth the total value of the cotton produced. But with the increase in corn and year-round forage crop production and the use of local products such as fish meal and cottonseed meal to provide a balanced ration, a number of the present advantages of bog production can be; overcome. Further. Outstanding im- I proveineuis in roads utul in markets j are providing opportunity for pork! producers to sell their hogs direct by ' truck or rail, or through cooperative marketing associations. Bulletin 30f> may be obtained free j from the Publication Department, of! Cli-mson. and will be of value to anyone interested in the factors t hut must be considered in successful hog prod uction.
