Submitted by John Blue on October 14, 2010 - 5:58am.
Tag terms:
We continue to bring conversations from the Leman Conference. Up this week is a good review of sow feeding systems by Dr. Laura Greiner.
Also, you'll want to stay on top of the GIPSA regulation conversation. NPPC Board Member Mark Legan shares his concerns and strongly encourages getting your thoughts in before the deadline of November 22, 2010.
Finally, we are hearing good things from the corn fields. And the hogs are happily eating away at this tasty new crop. Hope yours are too.
What front-burner issues do you want SwineCast to tackle for you? Tell us at feedback@swinecast.com.
