The Alberta pork industry will need to work more cooperatively with each other and
\nthink more creatively if it is to have a fighting chance against the challenges it faces
\ntoday and in the future, says the chairman of Alberta Pork, the organization which
\nrepresents the province’s pork producers.
\nIn a presentation at Alberta Pork’s Annual General Meeting (AGM), Herman Simons
\nurged all pork industry participants to buy into the Revitalization Strategy developed by
\nthe industry and its partners this year and, in many cases, think beyond it. “We have to
\ncome to grips with the idea that good environmental and animal welfare practices are
\nbaseline expectations of today’s consumers. The next step is differentiating ourselves in a
\nmarket built on those expectations,” he says.
\nKey to this will be the entire industry’s ability to work together toward a common goal of
\nprosperity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
