IPPA tree buffer and beautification grants now available

Pig farmers in Illinois have the opportunity to take part in another round of tree buffer grants. The Illinois Pork Producers Association is offering this incentive for farmers to implement fresh landscaping on their pig farms. To date, Illinois pig farmers have already planted over 4,700 trees with this program. 

"Tree buffers are just one of the current best management practices that pig farmers are embracing to benefit the environment. We are proud to offer these grant opportunities to progressive pig farmers who understand the importance of stewardship for our future generations," says Jennifer Tirey, executive director of IPPA.
