October/November edition of Prairie Hog Country

Very happy to share that the 64 page October/November edition of Prairie Hog Country was successfully been printed by the new press. Some might recall or have heard, that after 25 years the printer/press I had been using since 1998 closed in August. So this will be the first edition printed at the new facility. With this new printer it opens up some exciting new possibilities for the core section.

Some of the highlights in this next issue are: Updates on Prop 12, ASF – feed controls and biosecurity, A day in the life of a swine vet, MB Discover the farm day, Inside look at VIDO, Swine health report updates, A tour through Grand’s expansion, A call to safeguard Canada’s food supply and much much more.

Be sure to check in Pork Chops for the dates and locations of all upcoming shows, meetings, seminars and workshops. The issue will be released end will be in the hands of Canada Post October 5th. As always thanks for the continued support.

Dr. Troy Rowan sits down with CLEAR Conversations host, Tracy Sellers. Dr. Rowan was a featured speaker at the 2025 State of the Science Summit at UC Davis. The event will return next year on June 16-18, 2026, continuing its focus on advancing livestock methane research and collaborative solutions.

Rowan, now an assistant professor at the University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture, grew up surrounded by cattle on his family’s Charolais operation in Iowa. His family has been farming and ranching there for more than a century — long enough for the rhythms of agriculture to get in his blood.
