Research Scientist @ Prairie Swine Centre, University of Saskatchewan | Animal Nutrition PhD

At this year's Animal Nutrition Association of Canada Animal Nutrition Conference of Canada, I spoke on the challenges and opportunities facing the swine industry with regards to nutrition. TL;DR: We have always faced challenges with respect to economics, legislation, and consumer demands, but the industry has always been able to respond. Nutrition will play a pivotal role in ensuring the success of the industry moving forward, but our focus must necessarily shift to include information beyond traditional nutrition and embrace technology. #animalnutrition #opportunities #swineindustry #lookingforward

Swine nutrition when married with technology will give us an opportunity to forge ahead and shape the success of the industry. As a nutritionist myself with experience in poultry, swine, and fish nutrition in the era of this ever dwindling supply of conventional raw materials as a result of climate change, war and other unplanned circumstances, technology has been helpful to me in harnessing the available nutrients in unconventional feed sources. I am an avid follower of your works Dr Dan, and I am sure working under your guidance will afford me the best possible insights into leveraging technology for this next level growth of the industry
