Pork Month 🥓

Not a day, not a week, but a whole month dedicated to pork! That’s right: Governor Mike Parson has proclaimed October as Pork Month in the state of Missouri. 

• Pride of the nation: the act is in recognition of the high-quality pork produced by Missouri pig farmers and their families. 🇺🇸

• The state’s pork industry ranks sixth in the nation.

Truth be told, tremendous progress has been made in the pork industry through research in genetics, which has resulted in economical and nutritious products for consumers and progress in overall sustainability.
