Alberta Pork AGM 2024

We had another productive and inciteful day at our Alberta Pork Annual General Meeting in Calgary with inciteful industry updates, announcements and presentations.

Thank you to all our speakers: Stephen Heckbert who presented a Canadian Pork Council Update, Todd Thurman for his presentation on Global Hog Industry Demographics and Brett Stuart for providing a Global Pork and Agriculture Market update.

We would also like to give a special thanks to the Honourable RJ Sigurdson, Minister of Agriculture and Irrigation who sent his virtual greetings and a sector update to our producers and industry partners.

Thank you to everyone who attended!

Alberta Pork’s Annual Report for 2024 is now available -  It includes industry and advocacy updates, a year in review and looking ahead to our strategic plan.
