SUMMARY
Happy Friday! Stewart and his wife raise hogs just outside of Listowel. Does things a little bit different: focuses on niche markets and raises pigs for certified organic, certified humane, and RWA production system (they can’t use antibiotics)
What made them decide to go this route?
When Stewart finished school in Guelph he came home and raised hogs with his parents, then worked in town, then when he wanted to settle down and start having kids, the challenge presented in those niche markets was the volatility, but they found markets where the prices weren’t as volatile.
Canada’s Clean Fuel Standard is likely to be published Friday, kicking off a comment period ahead of the standard becoming law. For a what-we-know and what-we-don’t discussion, we go to Marla Orenstein, of the Canada West Foundation, on this RealAg LIVE! Q&A.
