Succession Planner Gives Advice To The Next Generation

A succession planning specialist says, staying curious is a key to success.
 
Founder of Farm Life, Darrell Wade, gave a presentation at the Canadian Beef Industry Conference in London, Ontario last month during the Young Cattlemen's Council's Annual General Meeting.
 
Wade says it's important the younger generation coming into the farm asks lots of questions to open up the conversation.
 
"I think the big part of it is to respect these stories, these traditions, and these values that have brought the family to where it is today, which shows that you're not just there for the business, that you're there for the family and that family farm business."

Video: Secure Pork Supply Plan | Prepare to Protect Your Herd | U.S. Pork Producers

Join Jill Brokaw, a third-generation pig farmer, as she dives into the vital role of the Secure Pork Supply (SPS) Plan in preparing the U.S. pork industry for potential foreign animal disease outbreaks. This video is an essential watch for pork producers who are looking to safeguard their operations against the threats of diseases like foot and mouth disease, classical swine fever, and African swine fever. Why Should Pork Producers Care? An outbreak of foreign animal diseases in the U.S. could lead to severe restrictions and potentially result in industry-wide financial losses estimated between $15 to $100 billion. The SPS Plan is a collective effort to prevent such catastrophic outcomes by enhancing biosecurity, ensuring animal traceability, and promoting effective disease monitoring.
