SwineCast update for June 25, 2010, Dealing With Emotional Hangover From Economic Funk
Submitted by John Blue on June 24, 2010 - 11:41pm.
SwineCast has been on the road the last couple of weeks. From Des Moines and the upbeat 2010 World Pork Expo to the National Pork Board's Swine Managers Conference in South Carolina. Both programs provided a boat load of opportunities for conversations and presentations to share. Those conversations are coming online back at SwineCast.com as we get them produced and posted.
I mentioned in our last update the interest in controlling and/or eliminating PRRS in several areas around North America. There are 11 such programs that we're aware of today in various stages of development. Boehringer-Ingelheim invited presentations on those programs at a special seminar during World Pork Expo. A lot of valuable give and take should push those efforts in the right direction. Those presentations are online here.
Also want to thank our sponsors for that event coverage which included Boehringer-Ingelheim and the National Pork Producers Council. We're already in planning for 2011. If you're interested in being part of the SwineCast producer partnership, drop me an email to narthur@SwineCast.com.
