The June–August litter rate reported was the highest ever, at 11.72 pigs per litter. The resulting pig crop was slightly less than 1% below that of a year ago, with the litter rate offsetting much of the lower farrowings.

The June–August 2024 pig crop is projected to produce 7.1 billion pounds of pork in the first quarter of 2025 a production level fractionally higher than a year earlier.
