Alberta Pork PED Telephone Town Hall this Friday

While Canada has been doing an excellent job of keeping PED in  check so far, the risk is far from over. In fact, leading experts and  the history of the disease suggest   that fall may pose an even greater  PED threat to pigs and producers.

With that in mind, Alberta Pork is holding a PED telephone town hall  on Friday, August  22 at 10:30 am Mountain Time. Some of the best  PED minds in Alberta will talk  about the current state of the disease, what to expect this fall and how to prepare for the risks ahead.

To participate, call 1-877-229-8493 on Friday, August 22 at 10:30 AM Mountain Time and enter Pin # 112339 when prompted

Watch for more details coming later today by fax and email.
