Minnesota Hogs and Pigs report

Inventory down 2% from previous quarter, down 5% from previous year

PUBLISHED ON July 8, 2022

The goals of the SPS workshops for producers include: 1) Producers can complete the SPS plan with the least inconvenience to their schedule, 2) Participants will know how to monitor their herd for signs of FMD, CSF, and ASF, 3) Producers will go home with their own SPS plan in hand, and Minnesota swine producers will be ready with a functional disease response plan when a disease outbreak occurs.
