The Illinois Pork Producers Association has been working with Chicago Tribune reporters David Jackson and Gary Marx the past several months on their series of articles focused on the Illinois pork industry. We made the conscious decision to work with them in order to provide a balanced and educated voice to their story.
Since that time, many of our producers and industry stakeholders have graciously opened their farms to these reporters, spent hours on the phone answering detailed questions and put their reputations and livelihoods on the line for the greater good of the pork industry.
Our efforts are always to provide any journalist with accurate information about what is happening in Illinois’ pork industry and the dedication and passion our producers demonstrate every day on their farms.
