Meat plant closures trickle down to grain production
Iowa is the largest producer of pork and corn in the U.S. As many meat processing plants shut their doors due to COVID-19, demand for pigs plummeted.

NewsHour Weekend’s Melanie Saltzman reports as part of our "Future of Food" series with Pulitzer Center support.
