PEDV Task Force Needs Your Help

The pork industry PEDV Task Force is currently discussing recommendations for dealing with PEDV/SECD in the U.S. pork industry. One of the options on the table is to develop a voluntary industry control program for this virus. To make more informed decisions, the task force needs information from the field on the use of live virus inoculation and treatment of feed for control of the SECD viruses. All answers will be anonymous but they will help inform the task force about the current and future level of use of these management procedures. Please complete the survey by May 16.

Video: Did You Know Sheep Can Smile?!

Can sheep actually smile? You’ll have to see it to believe it! In today’s vlog at Ewetopia Farms, we captured one of our Suffolk rams flashing the biggest grin — and it’s not the only reason everyone is smiling. From harvesting our barley (and getting a surprisingly decent yield despite the drought) to seeing our alfalfa protected and thriving, it feels like everything lined up for once. Add in cooler weather, happy sheep, and even some silly ram courting rituals, and you’ve got a farm day full of joy, laughter, and a little bit of surprise. ??
