Research Abstract |
Under NAFTA the agricultural relationship between US and Canada is getting stronger, especially the hog industry. In US, the drastic changes in the hog industry are the expansion of production and shift from farrow-finish operation to finish only operation, the expansion of inshipment and outshipment of live hogs. On the other hand, we can see the expansion of hog production based on the increase of export of live hogs in Canada. But COOL is starting to disturb the interrelationship between the two countries and therefore it is important to see how the government of Canada will react to COOL.
