US - In last week's article I carelessly confused price per pound and price per hundredweight on retail pork. I should have said: The average retail price of pork during September was $3.789 per pound. That was down 0.9 cents per pound from the month before and down 13.0 cents per pound from a year ago, write Ron Plain and Scott Brown, Ag Economics, MU.Pork in cold storage totaled 642 million pounds on September 30. That is up 5.4 per cent from the last day of August, but down 2.1 per cent from a year ago.

　　罗恩普莱恩(Ron Plain)和斯科特布朗(Scott Brown)写道，我在上周的文章中混淆了每磅与每英担的猪肉零售价格。我本应该这样说：“九月猪肉的均匀零售价格为每磅3.789美元，每磅比上个月减少0.9美分，与去年同期相比下跌13美分。”截止9月30日，猪肉寒藏储量总计6.42亿磅，比上个月增长5.4%，但与去年同期相比减少2.1%。
