What can you learn from this episode of Popular Pig?
- The role of genetic companies in the search for “center of the plate” relevance.
- Nutritionists can be both the producers’ and consumers’ best friends.
- Animal welfare wins the day (producer responsibility: foot to fork)
- Will we see a return to emphasizing quality over quantity?
- Industry collaboration or quite frankly……the lack of it.
- Will packers ever pay for quality and should they?
- Are consumers willing to play an active role in their eating expertise (educating themselves on quality/cookery)?
