Don't miss Leman Swine Conference - Sept 16-19 in St. Paul, MN, USA

The pre-conference is held Saturday, Sept. 16 and Sunday, Sept 17 and is packed with presentations from university researchers, swine operations and agribusinesses. You won't be disappointed in the outstanding agenda, hitting the latest information and research on topics like African swine fever, PEDv and reproduction.  The main conference keynote speakers and breakout sessions are not to be missed.  

I attend this conference every year and I always walk away smarter, excited about the research that's going on and delighted to visit and network with friends in the industry. 

The Allen D. Leman Swine Conference is an annual educational event for the global swine industry. It is internationally acclaimed for bringing science-driven solutions to the complex challenges facing the industry.

Video: Three Generations of Care for the Land, the Cattle and the Future of Farming

At Van Osch Farms, the family raises Ontario corn-fed beef while working with the land to keep their operation strong for the next generation. From upcycling corn distillers in their feed program to powering their farm with rooftop solar (producing enough electricity for 80 homes), their approach is rooted in continuous improvement.

Their commitment to responsible farming practices earned them The Environmental Stewardship Award, recognizing producers who go above and beyond in caring for their land and animals.

It's another example of how Ontario farmers are helping build a sustainable future for Ontario beef.
