Expert Response
In Iowa, if you're engaged in the business of buying, selling, or exchanging hogs, or if you plan to move them within the state (intrastate) or across state lines (interstate), you'll likely need to secure a Pig Dealer License from the Iowa Department of Agriculture & Land Stewardship (IDALS).
