Pig farmers have been incorporating sustainable practices for decades. Without proper conservation of natural resources, pig farmers would not be able to pass their livelihood down from generation to generation. Farmers are taking active steps to ensure the continuity of our earth's natural resources. Happy Earth Day!

I was able to spend two days this week with Wakefield Pork, Inc. in Worthington and New Ulm. An incredible company of people that have the greatest Midwest values. The message was clear, find a way to attack your day to day operation and improve how you work. WPI is an industry leader and believes families across the world should have access to affordable high quality protein. Big thanks to Lincoln Langhorst and the entire team for having me. The work gloves will get put to good use this spring.
