Pork doesn't mean literal pork- in fact, as far as I know the infrastructure bill doesn't spend a cent on subsidies to pig, or any other, farming, though it does include improvements to rural roads, water supplies and broadband which will help farmers.
Pork, short for "pork-barrel politics", is a US term originating in the 19th century which refers to the practice of spending money in a legislator's district to get their support.
