Event Description

The 41st Ontario Pork Congress (OPC) will take place June 18 and 19 at the Stratford Rotary Complex in Stratford, Ontario. It is the opportunity for the swine sector to assemble all of the different sectors of the swine industry; it is the biggest swine show in Canada. The Congress enables swine farmers to get information on the latest pork issues and learn about new technologies.

More than 200 exhibitors and retailers will represent both the domestic and international pork industry, exhibitors include feed and animal health products, to barn ventilation technology and sow housing equipment retailers. According to show organizers, one of the main aims of this year’s Congress is to provide a well-rounded event that will cater to both a producer-focused and general audience.

“We’re basically trying to make this year’s congress a greater hog experience for the people that come,” he explains. “We’re introducing some new initiatives and bringing back popular events from last year’s Congress to key up interest among the pork producers, as well as the general public.” For more information, be sure to visit www.porkcongress.on.ca

When questions come up, tracking down the right government contact or program information should not add to their workload. That is why the Government of Alberta operates 310-FARM, an information and referral service designed to provide farmers, ranchers, ag businesses and rural residents a dependable first point of contact. 310-FARM is staffed by resource agents who understand the agricultural landscape and can help callers navigate provincial programs, regulatory requirements and available supports. While the team does not have every answer, they specialize in connecting callers with the right people – whether that means transferring you to a subject-matter expert, providing you with the details and a link to a specific program, or directing you to the right department or industry contact. The 310-FARM team will work to guide them toward the m

Stacking Good Decisions to Keep Calves Healthy

Last month’s column laid out some of the recommended practices that 11 large-scale research studies said were the most effective for reducing preweaning death loss in beef calves worldwide. Over half of those research studies had been done in Canada, but only three of those Canadian studies had been done in the past 20 years. Canada’s a huge place, and herd sizes and calving dates have shifted over the past two decades. So, which calving practices work best for Canadian cow-calf producers in 2026?
