Manitoba Ag Days Looking For Farmer Votes

Voting is now open for the Manitoba Ag Days Farmer's Choice Grand Prize Champion in the Innovation Showcase.
 
Kristen Phillips is the General Manager for Manitoba Ag Days.
 
"We really wanted to make sure farmers were involved without a live show, we wanted a way to pull them in," she said. "We decided to move forward with a Farmer's Choice Grand Prize, where the farmers get to vote for their Farmer's Choice Champion and ultimately the exhibitor will get $10,000."
 
There are seven finalists in the competition.
 
 
The winner will be announced January 25th.
 
A webinar showcasing each of the finalists is taking place January 14th.

Marcel Huijsmans, Global Marketing Director at Topigs Norsvin tells us about their new genetic solution R3silience that offers a solid alternative to how the industry can approach disease management.

R3silience delivers scientifically proven, naturally resilient pigs that thrive under disease pressure, enabling more predictable, sustainable production by reducing losses and sustaining growth under disease challenge.

R3silience pigs deliver higher survival, stronger overall performance, and healthier herds - reducing wean-to-finish mortality by up to 6 percentage points during multifactorial PRRS outbreak*.

R3silience pigs not only show higher survival, but also deliver superior growth, improving daily weight gain by up to 0.04lbs. per day under multifactorial PRRS outbreak.*

Pigs with enhanced resilience to both viral and bacterial diseases require fewer health interventions and up to 8% less antibiotic treatments from wean-to-finish*, supporting better animal welfare.
