Abstract
The first section of this report discusses the pork-producing companies and explains their sudden emergence in north central Iowa. The second section discusses likely future growth in the industry and discusses who will benefit and by how much. This section also examines the possible displacement of existing pork producers by large-scale pork production and the conditions under which Iowa corn and soybean farmers would benefit from the presence of these facilities.
