The President and CEO of Farmers Union Industries says 2022 has been a tough year for their pork processing operation.
Dale Bednarek tells Brownfield their Redwood Farms Meat Processing division in Estherville, Iowa has been challenged over the past year because of current market conditions. “The price of hogs is going high and the price of meat stays steady or goes down. That puts a damper on our margins overall.”
Bednarek tells Brownfield it’s not just the hog prices and consumer prices impacting their margins.
