The Ontario government is helping advance the pork sector and drive more innovation in farming through the construction of a new swine research facility at the Elora Research Station in Ontario.
 
According to the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food & Rural Affairs (OMAFRA), the new infrastructure investment in Elora will use state-of-the-art technology to meet advanced research and training needs in the swine sector, which represents more than 1,200 producers in the province, for decades.
 
"Our government is committed to supporting the development of farming technologies that create good jobs and help the economy grow," said Ernie Hardeman, Ontario minister of agriculture, food and rural affairs. "We want to help farmers succeed and better position the pork sector for further growth and competitiveness now and for years to come."
