Organizations look to see Canada take action in upcoming COP28 event

The Canadian Cattle Association, along with Ducks Unlimited Canada and the Nature Conservancy of Canada hosted a dialogue on on climate adaptation through sustainable livestock systems.

The event explored bridging the nexus of climate change and biodiversity loss through cross-cutting themes of sustainable production systems and food security as attendees discussed the implications of grassland conversion and sustainable food production as producers feed a growing population.

At the close of the event, the organizations were excited to highlight efforts currently underway on the Grasslands Conservation Initiative, an industry-led proposed initiative by CCA providing a multi-pronged approach to protect biodiversity, contribute to global food security, and restore agricultural lands and habitats.

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.
