Setting up an Effective On-Farm Trial
Posted in: Economics by admin on December 3, 2010
The pork industry is blessed with a number of innovators. All pig farms participate to a greater or lesser extent in experimenting to improve productivity, reduce costs, or make management easier. Sometimes the results of such experimentation are as expected. Often however, the time, effort and money required to innovate and experiment results in more questions than answers and does not lead to an innovation being adopted on the farm as part of a new long-term management strategy. This paper will help to explain why results are not always what we expect and how to improve your odds of success in future on-farm trials.
