SeriesIn the second part of our series on women in the swine industry, we visit with three incredible women with various careers however, they all have one thing in common…they are all moms. Our guests for this episode are: Amanda Minton, Sara Hough and Whitney Lincoln.Many of the women in our industry are also moms so this episode is dedicated to them. With this episode, we hope to shed light on the negative stigma that exists within our industry and many other industries around family leave, PTO, and health leave. Some of the conversation in this episode is around the feeling of having to choose between our families and our careers when there should be no need to choose one or the other. In recent years, we have proven that this balance can exists with more options for flexible work. We hope our listeners will enjoy this episode from the perspective of moms and that our listeners who are leaders in the industry will take the time to evaluate their ideals around employees who are moms. With that said, we hope the ideas and conversations in this episode are not limited to moms but to all employees. At The Real P3, we firmly believe that allowing employees to achieve a work life balance and maintain a high quality of life is the foundation of high performing individuals.

www.thesunswinegroup.comTue, 06 Dec 2022 - 82 - Bringing Solutions and Change to the Swine Industry - Chris BomgaarsIn this episode, we shift gears a little bit from our by-products series and visit with Chris Bomgaars, founder of Every Pig. Chris grew up immersed in the swine industry through his father’s local veterinary clinic. Chris then studied international business in Spain but returned to his hometown to work with his father’s expanding business. Chris saw a missing piece in the swine industry, ultimately becoming his platform's basis. He noticed that most of the health problems in the swine industry were being reacted to quite slowly rather than being proactive. He began looking at how information was being collected and noticed that many of the methods used did not allow the industry to act fast enough to mitigate these challenges. Originally, Every Pig started as a digital collection application that allowed for data to be collected in real-time that had previously been collected on paper. Over time, the platform was expanded to utilize artificial intelligence to suggest certain diseases based on pictures. If you would like to learn more about Chris and Every Pig after listening to this episode, you can follow in the link below. www.everypig.com

We discuss various topics from around the world that occurred in Q3, 2022. One of the main topics is around some of the recent technological advancements in the swine industry and some of the challenges they face. Also, we discuss the status of the labor market in the US and Europe in terms of the swine industry as well as the effects of the events unfolding in Ukraine. We had several great guests on The Real P3 this year. On this episode we recap some of the main topics of these episodes and how they still apply as we move into the fourth quarter of 2022. Another main discussion of this episode revolves around taking care of the most important part of our industry and ultimately all industries, the people. Without the passionate people who work in our industry, it would not be possible to continue to produce high quality pork. How do we in the agriculture industry make time for the important things in our life? How do operation managers and owners ensure they don’t find their employees and themselves in a state of “burnout” and at a loss of motivation? We also explore the beginning of what seems to be a resurgence in American homesteading with the increase in remote work as a result of COVID. We end the episode with a call to action to the entire industry to be the change we want to see and give our best effort to educate the public on what we do, how we do it, and why we do it the way we do.

We interview Dr. Christine Bone with the University of Guelph to discuss her research on boar taint. Christine grew up in a rural community in SW Ontario Canada and developed her interest in agriculture and the pork industry at a young age. The goal of her research is to find early markers in boars to predict both early or late puberty and the ultimate boar taint. But the process is complex and multifactorial. Her ultimate goal is to not only predict the onset of boar taint in the meat but to find natural solutions to prevent it.

www.thesunswinegroup.comTue, 02 Aug 2022 - 71 - Arlene Garcia - ASAS 2022 Special - Survey SaysThis episode kicks off our series featuring swine research that was presented at the American Association of Animal Science (ASAS) Annual Meeting held in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma from June 26-30, 2022. We are featuring Dr. Arlene Garcia that we first met in Episode 34 and learned about her research around timely euthanasia. So, we thought it would be a great opportunity to feature Dr. Garcia again, as she presented the data from her research. Almost all individuals on the farm are responsible for euthanasia with their day-day roles. Dr. Garcia was surprised by the demographics of the participants of her survey, as most of the employees had a degree from higher education institutions as part of their TN-60 VISA requirements. Within her survey, the majority of the subjects interviewed were from Mexico and ranged in age and gender, while the educational level was 84% of the subjects had a bachelor's degree or higher, and more than half were veterinarians. Within the survey, there were numerous differences between gender, including job satisfaction. Dr. Bradley takes Dr. Garcia down the path of how her research is connected to the preparation of Foreign Animal diseases and potential mass-depopulation needs. About our GuestDr. Arlene Garcia-Marquez is a Presidio, Texas, native with a research focus in animal behavior and welfare. She is a PAACO-certified multi-species animal welfare auditor, a licensed veterinary technician, and an animal welfare consultant for various industry groups.ResearchHer area of research is focused on the management of compromised livestock and timely euthanasia. She has also done extensive pig transportation research that has helped develop national guidelines and continues to work on finding innovative ways to reduce transport stress. Her research goals are to continue to improve animal welfare by addressing commercial needs and developing programs that educate caretakers on the relevance of humane handling and welfare.ServiceDr. Garcia has vast experience in animal welfare auditing standards to prepare local producers for third-party audits. She is the Texas Tech University (TTU) president-elect for the Latino Hispanic Faculty and Staff Association, a co-chair for the Animal Behavior and Well-being Program for the American Society of Animal Science (ASAS), and a member of the Diversity Equity and Inclusion Committee for ASAS.

www.thesunswinegroup.comTue, 26 Jul 2022 - 70 - Employee Efficiency and Culture with Barrett EllerBarrett Eller has a long history in the industry and community of the swine industry. His experience started with New Fashion as a Safety Manager, then stepped away for a few years in which he worked for a mining company, and then came back to New Fashion Pork as more of a Human Resources Manager and Operation Improvement Role. Now Barrett is now the Director of Sales for Swine Technologies. Our host, Dr. Casey Bradley, and Barrett connect over their history at New Fashion Pork, even though it was at different times. The discussion includes components of worker safety, continuous improvement, and employee culture. All producers can relate to the banter about wearing rubber boots for 8+ hours on concrete floors. Barrett suggests that producers get caught up in the risk-reward equation before making changes that could lead to improvement. Also, many producers need to dial into their metrics and what are the highest priorities to truly drive continuous improvement and the culture on the farm. The conversation further dives into the comfort levels of technology and how to change your culture to adapt technology to drive efficiencies. Barrett mentions that is critical to provide continuous value to your team on the inside versus always looking outside of your organization for the next hire to breed the culture and pride that will ultimately seep out into the community. He also touches on the fact that the TN60 program is not always the long-term solution for labor but needs to develop the pool within our communities.

www.thesunswinegroup.comTue, 12 Jul 2022 - 68 - Doing Better in our Industry - The UK Example Part 1 of 2In this episode, we get the pleasure of visiting with Mark Jagger, Assistant Growing Farms Manager for BQP (British Quality Pigs) of Pilgrims U.K. Mark grew up in agriculture and worked his way up through the ranks in the swine industry. You will instantly feel his passion and love for the swine industry and his 28 years at BQP. We discuss the two types of pigs raised in the U.K., the Red Tractor Pig or the RSPCA assured pig or conventional versus outdoor-grown with straw deep-bedded barns for finishing. The discussion also leads to the current market issues facing the U.K. swine industry. Mark discusses the retailer support of producers, but at the same time, possibly the negative aspects of keeping prices low to help the industry rebound. The next component of this episode is around employee well-being. Mark is gracious to share his struggles with mass depopulation and the emotional toll it had on him. He discusses the Post-Combat Fatigue that he went through from these events and his love of his stock. And the importance of seeking help and talking about events with others allows others to open up, and you end up helping more than yourself. But the UK has stepped up and incorporated mental health aspects into their jobs as fieldsmen to ensure the well-being both of their animals and people. The conversation then turns into the new generation of farm workers and the entrance of women into different roles. In Mark’s words, the growing team has gone from a group of old men to 60% females with equal opportunities. With these changes, BQP is looking for ways to make the work easier to maintain our staff. We need to learn what motivates our employees and not what motivates the bottom line. About our Guest: Mark Jagger worked with pigs since 1987. He started at the bottom and worked through to the roll has now. He has worked for BQP for 28 years all in the growing end of the business. Firstly, as a Fieldsman but now his role is predominantly to find new farmers to build new contract piggeries for BQP alongside working on improvements in the water systems on the farm and any other practical challenges are thrown our way. He was instrumental in kicking off BQP’s record-keeping systems on the farm which are now being developed by professionals to be a web-based portal. He loves pigs. He loves the challenge of working with pig people.To connect with Mark Jagger – follow him on Twitter @piggy_jags To learn more about BQP and Pilgrims UK visit https://www.pilgrimsuk.com

www.thesunswinegroup.comTue, 03 May 2022 - 62 - A New Approach to the Supply Chain with Joshua ToewsFor this episode, we venture outside of swine production from a traditional perspective and discuss a new idea for the supply chain for grains and pulse crops with Joshua Toews with NGF Global. Through this startup, we find solutions to bring transparency and connection to our food chain while providing value to both the crop farmers and the customers they supply. While NGF is just starting with pulse crops, the future of agriculture is in its sights. About our guest: Mr. Joshua Toews, a U.S. Air Force Veteran, has over 15 years of experience in operational management. Joshua, a multi-generational farmer/rancher, has held positions within airlines where he oversaw the changes within maintenance departments during start-up, rebranding, and structuring. During this time, Joshua was tasked to build maintenance departments from the ground up. Joshua was recognized as one of the largest pulse crop and wheat originators in the United States. He managed two of the largest gross bushel originating facilities in Montana. Joshua is a proven successful entrepreneur; starting his own agricultural company, he was able to build and make it profitable within its first year of operation. He has since sold his venture to focus on the efforts of NGF Global. Joshua is one of the original co-founders of NGF Global. This company was created to bridge the gap between producers and pulse crop/oilseed buyers and implement full transparency and traceability throughout the entire process. NGF Global opens new opportunities for both grain buyers and producers through this process. Due to Joshua taking part on both sides of the grain trade, he was tasked with recognizing the shortfalls in the pulse crop and oilseed industry for NGF Global and creating a solution to these problems.

www.thesunswinegroup.comFri, 08 Apr 2022 - 60 - Highlights from the 2022 Midwest ASAS Meetings with Edward YangThis episode highlights Midwest ASAS's symposium "I am not Bossy - Professional Women in the Allied Industry" and other presentations from this year's meeting. In the first part of the episode, our host Casey Bradley discusses the symposium and the inspiration beyond it. We also chat with Edward Yang about the Midwest highlights and what it means to be a scholar, his research, and what’s next for the industry. This episode (and within the agricultural sector) focuses on finding solutions to natural climate change problems through sustainability, precision feeding, and pig production. Essential topics such as using different protein levels and ingredients – the US corn and soy meals – to improve production efficiency are addressed. What other options do we have besides the diet? Improving our sustainability and using it as an objective must be economical to make it advantageous. The importance of annual sustainability reports as the first starting point to sustainability through numbers and the ethical debate of how ‘data mining’ is dangerous. How to, as a student, network yourself as the next generation in the animal science industry as a valuable asset.About the host:Dr. Casey Bradley is an Animal Scientist and Nutritionist that has worked with swine and other livestock with many years of valuable experience. Her specialties include product development, technical writing, presentations, research, technical sales, mentoring, and networking. Her focus is on nutrition, immunology, and animal welfare. She has presented at large conferences in the USA, Canada, Greece, and Denmark with work experience in farm and research management, technical service and sales, regulatory, project, and employee management. An industry leader, guiding students and colleagues towards sustainable pork production. About the guest:Edward is a young scholar with great potential and aspirations who is also the young scholar award (ASAS) holder. A Ph.D. candidate at the University of Minnesota, originally from China, has spent the last ten years in the US working with pigs. He is a nutritionist with a focus on grower-finisher pigs and how we can reduce nitrogen production and nitrogen recycling through precision feeding practices.Key takeaways •We need to start paying attention to real and current data in order to understand where we are in terms of sustainability in the agricultural industry•Agricultural symposiums bridge the gap of sustainability between the beef, dairy, poultry and pork producers, and the consumer•Providing actual data and making proactive decisions are necessary to move forward as an industry •Research projects and data are information-rich when analyzed properly•We need to pay more attention to the benefits women offer to the industry, starting with men

www.thesunswinegroup.comTue, 22 Mar 2022 - 57 - Biosecurity from a South African Perspective - Marc RaathIn this episode, we go on a safari – to South Africa. The Sunswine Groups’ new extern Marc Raath gives a different perspective on animal health and biosecurity. We address some of the pitfalls that producers experience with biosecurity and management. How have on-farm challenges changed over time and finding the balance between biosecurity and employee compliance through identifying simple solutions? We delve into what it means for a pig to be “content” and how fiber is “the missing link” for optimal pig health and economics. We sneak at Marc’s new research on tail biting and his day-to-day life as an animal health technician. To read more about biosecurity in South Africa visit:Highlights• Marc has almost 20 years in agricultural industry and has been working in the pig industry for the last 7 years.• Marc visits onsite to collect samples and he has seen first-hand that some disease protocols are not up to standard.• Marc believes that biosecurity is a lifestyle and not just a set of rules that you have to follow.• Marc sees too many things being taken into areas not allowed.• Producers should try to build trust with the workers.• The trust has to be mutual. • You should be able to do whatever you are requiring a worker to do. They have to know that you aren’t requesting something of them that you cannot do.• There is now more emphasis on vehicle disinfection.• More effort is going into bird proofing.• Fencing requirements are changing and becoming more stringent.• Marc finds that older more naturally controlled facilities have better animal welfare.• Proper control of feeding is critical to contentment which can be a key contributor on tail biting.

We discuss their experiences in developing new ideas on creating microenvironments for piglets. Key Highlights:• Amos believes that there is a trust issue in the pork industry with some outside technologies that could be beneficial.• Evaluating new technologies requires new metrics to measure success.• Bill believes that the diversity of experiences coming into the industry is helping. People come in from outside industries, and they have different ideas and ways of seeing things.• Today’s challenges, in particular labor, are driving innovation.• A large part of Farrpro’s success is a true collaboration with clients.• Regular heat maps frequently fail because of wire design.• Farrpro’s NanoMat is designed with more durable and efficient materials.• The NanoMat also has a better grip surface, and it is safer for pigs.• Electrical heat use is approximately 65% less for the NanoMat than traditional heat maps.• Pork producers need to look at the farm's design. Other industries seem to be more innovative. Pork producers can learn from others.To learn more, visit www.farrpro.com
