Ontario hog prices remained relatively stable heading into the week ending May 22, 2026, even as U.S. futures markets softened and slaughter volumes trended lower. The latest Weekly Hog Market Facts report highlights a market that continues to balance solid fundamentals with growing uncertainty surrounding summer demand and futures direction.

While prices remain respectable historically, they continue to trail year-ago levels, when the formula price stood at $232.27/cwt.
