The National Swine Nutrition Guide, funded by a United Soybean Board grant, was developed in collaboration with land-grant universities, agri-businesses and the US Pork Center of Excellence.
The six regional training conferences will be held in: Moses Lake, Wash. on Feb. 5; Raleigh, N.C. on Feb. 11; Kansas City, Mo. on Feb. 17; Indianapolis, Ind. on Feb. 24; Sioux City, Iowa on March 5; and Owatonna, Minn. on March 11.
The training conferences will be administered by members of the National Swine Nutrition Guide Steering Committee. The sessions will focus on the use and application of the guide and also will include a demonstration of the Diet Formulation and Evaluation software program.
“This development effort has been a great collaboration between the US Pork Center of Excellence, several extension nutritionists and all the major feed companies. The result is a reference book and software that will be of great value to the industry for years to come,” said David Meisinger, director of the US Pork Center of Excellence.
