About these numbers

Prices are USDA’s, from the National Daily Pork FOB Plant, Negotiated Sales afternoon report (LM_PK602): the weighted average of the day’s negotiated sales, FOB the packing plant, in dollars per hundredweight (100 lb). Divide by 100 for the price per pound. These are wholesale prices, well below what the same cut costs at a store. USDA lists this item as “Roll Out Ham”. The latest report is for Oct 29, 2026; the next is due Fri, Oct 30, 2026.
