Pork Industry Handbook Revised

September 15, 2010 — 

Produced by swine experts at Purdue and 18 other land-grant universities, nine state pork boards, and the National Pork Board in cooperation with the U.S. Pork Center of Excellence, the revised version of the Pork Industry Handbook is available in both print and DVD versions.

"It covers everything in swine production, from reproduction to artificial insemination to business management and managing personnel," said Brian Richert, Purdue Extension swine nutrition and management specialist. "There are many sections in the handbook that are new and updated. It's really the best reference book out there on how to manage a swine operation from start to finish."
