Abstract
The pork industry has been modified by a series of innovations in production technologies and now may be modified by changes in the organizational form of ownership. Changes in technology have resulted in a movement of pork production from an uncontrolled to a controlled environment. Confinement structures are rapidly being adopted to house much of Iowa's livestock, especially hogs.
