The National Pork Board will host its annual Pork Management Conference, April 17-20, in Hilton Head, S.C.
The annual conference will accommodate a diverse set of experts from across the United States. The 2018 conference will address current business trends and challenges facing the U.S. pork industry. Through presentations, breakout sessions and networking, attendees will gain important insight on the pork industry, its challenges and financial management practices that improve the performance and efficiency of pig farming.
“This year’s Pork Management Conference schedule is powerful,” says Andrew Reinecker, chair of the Checkoff’s Producer and State Services Committee and a pig farmer from York Springs, Pa. “It is vital to provide valuable guest presenters and experts for attendees in an effort to increase industry knowledge among all sectors. This conference is growing and so is its value to producers and attendees.”
In addition to the general sessions open to all attendees on April 18, 19 and 20 mornings, two concurrent afternoon sessions are planned on April 19. Topics include benchmarking, compensation, on-boarding, food safety, siting, succession planning and tax updates.
The registration fee is $425 per person through March 23 and increases to $475 beginning March 24. No refunds after March 30. Click here for a registration form and a detailed list of events.
