TECHNICAL UPDATE 2024

The Demeter and Shakespeare Mills Technical Update is just around the corner! For several years, this event has brought together more than 100 participants from the swine industry. This event is a great opportunity to learn and network with other producers.

As in past years, the event will include sessions in which our veterinarians, agrologists and production specialists will present lectures on current topics related to health, research, herd management and nutrition. We will also have guest speakers who will come to share their experience on their farms.

The event is reserved only to Demeter and SMI customers.

NEW ADDITION TO THE SCHEDULE:

For those interested, please join us early for a discussion on Sow Housing Conversions at 10h30 am.  A panel of producers will share their conversion experiences and then we'll engage in open discussion. (light lunch will be served)
