Guarantees and Product Warranties [Abstract]
Guarantees	GUARANTEES Smithfield and certain other joint venture partners in Monarch joint and severally guarantee Monarch’s debt, interest and fees. As of March 30, 2025, the maximum amount of loans that could be outstanding under Monarch’s debt agreements was $61 million and the loans mature in June 2025. Monarch’s outstanding debt was $56 million as of March 30, 2025. The guarantee involves elements of performance and credit risk and is not included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We could become liable in connection with Monarch’s obligation depending on the ability of Monarch to perform on its obligation. If we consider it probable that we will become responsible for the obligation, we would record the liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The entire disclosure for each guarantee obligation, or each group of similar guarantee obligations, including (a) the nature of the guarantee, including its term, how it arose, and the events or circumstances that would require the guarantor to perform under the guarantee; (b) the maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) the guarantor could be required to make under the guarantee; (c) the current carrying amount of the liability, if any, for the guarantor's obligations under the guarantee; and (d) the nature of any recourse provisions under the guarantee, and any assets held either as collateral or by third parties, and any relevant related party disclosure.
