Purvis Farms, Inc., a Robbins, N.C.-based large-scale pork production business with farms in North Carolina and Georgia, filed for chapter 11 protection on Thursday, April 8, in the Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, pinning the bankruptcy filing primarily on unsustainably high feed costs. The company is seeking to transition from its current farrow-to-finish business model to a farrow-to-wean model through which it will grow weaner pigs for sale to Murphy-Brown LLC pursuant to a supply and purchase agreement.
