Demand Strong For Canadian Beef

 
CanFax Market Analyst Dallas Rodger gave a beef market update and forecast last week at Manitoba Agriculture's Beef and Forage Day in Vita.
 
He said the demand for Canadian beef is strong.
 
"What's been huge, has been on the export markets," explained Rodger. "We've been able to move more beef at higher prices...just insatiable demand from key markets. China's been really key."
 
Rodger notes Canada has an advantage over the U.S. when exporting to China, because of our ractopamine-free beef.

Video: World Pork Expo: Tackling oxidative stress at critical stages in swine production

Dr. Marlin Hoogland, veterinarian and Director of Innovation and Research at Feedworks, speaks to The Pig Site's Sarah Mikesell just after World Pork Expo about how metabolic imbalance – especially during weaning, late gestation and disease outbreaks – can quietly undermine animal health and farm profitability.

In swine production, oxidative stress may be an invisible challenge, but its effects are far from subtle. From decreased feed efficiency to suppressed growth rates, it quietly chips away at productivity.

Dr. Hoogland says producers and veterinarians alike should be on alert for this metabolic imbalance, especially during the most physiologically demanding times in a pig’s life.
