The main issue that not all crops are the same and we feed animals low quality grains that are either inedible or won't sell.do you think farmers are interchangeable? you think an operation that produces corn wheat soy can just press a couple buttons and turn into a pig farm?
if you have inventory now, you want to sell it now. under an actual free market then yes, the oversupply of grain might have resulted in more meat production because the cost of feed might have dropped enough but that's why people lobby the government, so they can make millions the easy way instead.
commodities aren't numbers on a screen, this is real physical stuff in the real physical world.
