I grew up in Iowa and can confirm there are tons of hogs. It seemed like every farmer I talked to had like 3 if not more hog confinements.

The smell is always worst when the farmer is pumping out the pit to fertilize the fields. I’m pretty glad I never got into farming.

I looked up an inflation calculator and it said $8.33 Cumulative inflation from 2004 to now is 66.5%
