Second Operation Main Street Training
The Wisconsin
Pork Association and the National Pork Board will be hosting a second Operation
Main Street Training from 16 - 17 January at the Marriott Madison West in
Middleton.
The Operation
Main Street Training aims to improve the image of the pork industry, through
producers and industry supporters communicating with their communities and
neighbours about modern pork production.
Tammy Vaassen, WPA operations
director says, "The pork industry is undergoing sweeping transformation
triggered by global competition, modernisation, evolving new production models
and challenges from activist groups."
Vaassen
continues saying that one thing remains unchanged: "like our fathers and
grandfathers, today's pork producers are environmentally sensitive, respect
livestock, benefit America's rural economy, love country life, and are, last but
not least, good neighbours."
