Quote-Daniel Ramage-Swine Innovation Porc:
Funding for SIP primarily comes from a combination of government grants and industry contributions and research partnerships.One of the major research programs that we've been leading since 2010 is the swine cluster program.
That's an initiative that's funded under the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada AgriScience Cluster Program.That is a program that represents a true partnership between industry and government and academics, institutions.
It's where we come together to advance priority work and large-scale multi-partner research initiatives.SIP's research program is led by institutions and research centers from across Canada and in some cases even with global partners.Under cluster 3, for example, which we're really featuring and showcasing in our annual report, we worked with 24 different research institutions.
These are leading universities and academic institutions and across those institutions we worked with over 80 different researchers throughout this program and they're projects that are enabling us to tap in to some of the best minds in pork research and applying it to the priorities of our industry.What we strive to do is to build that collaboration between industry and academia and government so that we can drive innovation.
