6 OVERVIEW OF BEEF Nearly 10,000 farms () Approx. $205 million in value Cow-calf Higher density in Southern 70% of farms <20 head Inventory dropped 58% since 1985 Current inventory 320,000 (2013)

8 OVERVIEW OF DAIRY diary farms () Approx. $743 million in value Operations in northern and eastern Indiana Small farms outnumber large, but large have significant market share (500+ head = 2% of farms; and 33% of inventory)

10 OVERVIEW OF HOGS ~3750 hog farms () Approx. $1.1 billion in value Operations spread throughout Indiana with core in north central Primarily Farrow to Finish and Finish only operations Large farms (1000+ head account for 31% of farms and 96% of production Some vertical integration

12 OVERVIEW OF POULTRY Poultry production in Indiana includes egg, chicken, duck, turkey, and pullets for laying flock replacement Production is vertically integrated Companies control breeding, growing, processing and marketing of the poultry species Independent farms are contracted to perform some of the duties associated with poultry production under strict guidelines and use methods prescribed by the companies. Integration precludes publication of data due to disclosure issues Examine eggs and turkeys

13 DIANA EGGS Indiana and U.S. Egg Production Quantity Index, ( Base Year) Indiana produced 6.5 billion eggs in Indiana and U.S. Egg Value of Production Index, ( Base Year) Indiana egg production was valued at $422 million in

14 DIANA TURKEYS Indiana and U.S. Turkey Production Quantity Index, ( Base Year) Indiana produced 579 million pounds of turkey in Indiana and U.S. Turkey Value of Production Index, ( Base Year) Indiana turkey production was valued at $395 million in

15 CONCLIONS Indiana livestock production (for the species included in this study) was valued at nearly $2.9 billion in, a 58.5 percent increase from

17 CONCLIONS The recent drought conditions produced challenging feed availability situations for many livestock and poultry producers, increased feed costs for producers and limited the productivity of pasturelands. Indiana will need dedicated producers and supportive allied industries, as well as a solid research and education base, in order to sustain and potentially grow the value of production in these key industries of the state.
