Help Represent the Pork Industry in Ag Census

Help Represent the Pork Industry in Ag Census

All pork producers are asked to participate in the 2022 Census of Agriculture, which is open now through Feb. 6.  

The census is taken every 5 years and is a complete count of U.S. farms, ranches and the people who operate them. 

Any farm that sold or produced $1,000 or more of agricultural products during the census year should participate. 

The data collected for the census will be released as soon as spring 2024, and it will inform decisions about agriculture policy, farm and conservation programs, infrastructure and rural development, research, education, beginning farmer programs and more.

Pigs Destroy Everything! Upgrading Our Pig Watering System

Video: Pigs Destroy Everything! Upgrading Our Pig Watering System

I'm beyond over the broken water dishes. It feels like we're replacing them every month or so....so it's time to start upgrading our pig watering system.

In this one, we'll begin converting from an old bucket and dish method to a more automated approach with pig nipple waterers.

We'll walk you through our thoughts and plans on how we'll set this up off of a plastic drum, how we'll keep it secure, and even change our plans along the way when I realize there is a simpler and more effective way to get the job done.

We thank you for watching - please consider hitting that like and subscribe to stay tuned for updates on this project and all sorts of fun from our farm.

If you're new to the channel - check out some of our other videos as we cover anything from pigs to sheep to chickens and gardens all the way to processing and really anything that goes down on the farm!
