The increase in sales was primarily due to an 18.1% price increase, which was partially offset by a 9.8% decrease in volume. Swine and Other Lines Sales of swine and other lines increased 22.3% in the quarter. This increase stems from a 33.1% increase in swine volume along with the integration of turkey and beef business lines. Sales were partially offset by an 8.0% decline in swine prices.
