The Iowa Pork Industry Center has partnered with the Iowa Pork Producers Association to offer 10 biosecurity workshops across Iowa this spring.
Designed for barn managers, employees and producers of any size, these workshops will include an educational presentation and biosecurity demonstrations led by swine extension specialists.
