Advance Payments Program now available

Western Canadian hog producers can now apply for up to $1 million, with the first $250,000 interest-free, through the Advance Payments Program.

The program is designed to help producers meet short-term financial obligations and covers those who own weaned piglets, feeder pigs, market hogs and breeding stock (gilts, sows and boars). Pigs already sent to slaughter are not eligible.

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s (AAFC) Advance Payments Program, for hogs, is administered by the Manitoba Pork Credit Corporation.

Video: New Suffolk Ram To Refresh Our Flock Genetics...Hopefully!


At Ewetopia Farms, we've just purchased the reserve champion Suffolk yearling ram at The All Canada Sheep Classic to refresh our flock genetics. His arrival has not gone smoothly and he arrived here not feeling well so hopefully he will recover! Also, Gimpy and his buddy went to The Misfit Farm where they will reside in a more suitable environment with lots of care.
