U.S. Dairy Forage Research Center Webinar: USDFRC 2024 Update – Jan. 3

Dec 29, 2023

Please join us for a turn-of-the-year update. We will provide a vacancy update including positions we have filled and positions in the process of being filled. We’ll also address current vacancies that are in line to be advertised, as well as discuss our plans for addressing office and lab space shortages on the near and long-term. We’re also excited to share our progress on getting the construction started for the new dairy. Finally, we will lay out a plan for a revision and broadening of our stakeholder engagement strategy that we hope will continue our grassroots (pardon the pun) approach to prioritizing research efforts. Stay tuned for additional topics of interest. We look forward to you joining us!

Video: Hendrix Genetics Swine Raises the Bar: Delivering Robust Genetics for Pork Producers

The swine genetics landscape is evolving rapidly, and Hendrix Genetics Swine is leading the way. In this exclusive interview, Bryce Martin discusses how the integration of Hypor, Danish Genetics and the newly introduced Nexus product line is creating one of the industry's most comprehensive genetic portfolios. Producers across Canada, the United States and Europe are facing increasing pressure to improve efficiency, animal health, survivability and profitability, and Hendrix Genetics Swine is responding with genetics designed to meet those challenges.
Martin explains how the strengths of Hypor's balanced and sustainable breeding approach combine with Danish Genetics' reputation for robustness, growth performance and productivity to deliver solutions tailored to a wide range of production systems. The discussion also explores the launch of Nexus 100, a new sow developed from the combined expertise of both genetic programs and designed to improve predictability, survivability and total system profitability.
