An Expo for the Record Books

On my way home from Des Moines I can't help but reflect on what a incredible week we had at the World Pork Expo.  Not only did we have a record number of junior exhibitors  but we had a  one of the highest grossing sales in NSR history. If this past week didn't get you excited about our industry then you need to check your pulse! 

I wanted to take the time to not only congratulate the junior exhibitors for their accomplishments, but also praise the breeders for bringing out one of the deepest sets of breeding stock that have been exhibited and sold in recent history.  I believe that we ran some true herd sires through the ring on Saturday and I can  only say that the sale averages speak to the quality of this set.  Be sure to check out the NSR website for full details on where these hogs went, also don't hesitate to call your field man to discuss how they can work in your program. 

Congrats to all involved and let's do it again at Louisville in a couple weeks!
