I sat down with Cindy Cunningham of the National Pork Board and talked with her about the new campaign they’ve launched called #RealPigFarming. The campaign takes place on major social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, and its aim is to educate the general public on the pork industry.
“So those real pig farmers – from their barns, from their chores everyday, when they’re outside working, they’re posting pictures. They’re posting information about what they’re doing in that very moment so that people who aren’t on the farms or may not even have an opportunity to get to the farms can learn and can understand and can see what’s happening on those farms and then they also can answer questions that real farmers can’t from consumers.”
The Real Pig Farming Twitter page states #RealPigFarming unites pig farmers, academics, youth, veterinarians and allied industry members to discuss how modern pork production really works.
