by BETTER FARMING STAFF

The eleventh annual London Swine Conference, March 30 and 31 at the London Convention Centre, will focus on the future with topics ranging from industry experience in the United Kingdom and Brazil to facility usage, production management, and examining the pork consumers’ changing demands.

“The aim of the conference is to help attendees focus forward, and the theme this year is Exploring the Future,” says Stewart Cressman, conference chair and an Ontario Pork director. “After many difficult years, looking toward the future can be intimidating, but is more necessary than ever. With continued learning through conferences like this one, we aim to help stake holders strengthen their planning and positioning for future success”

Conference fees are $200 for both days, and $135 for a one-day registration. Discounts are available for groups of five or more who register together. Registration deadline is March 16, 2011. There is no registration at the door. Full program and registration material is available at: www.londonswineconference.ca. BF
