The CME Lean Hog Index component on the kill for -

8/15/19 was down -0.31 to 78.86. The VVVs settled discount to the component by -16.86.

The 6-day moving average carcass weight eased to 208.17#. That is -0.05# yr/yr. Index hogs were steady at 208.26#. Packer hogs made up 42.4% of the kill mix. Packer hogs were -0.55# lighter than the non-packer hogs. Packers are very current in their shipments.
