Speaking for the Entire U.S. Pork Industry

America’s pig farmers work hard every day to raise their animals responsibly and produce safe, affordable, and nutrient-dense foods for people to enjoy. They need a strong public voice, especially where decisions affecting their livelihoods are being made.

NPPC presents credible information about our industry to legislators, regulators, trade organizations, and other people who can affect our markets and U.S. pig farmers’ freedom to operate. Our goal is to share the workings of this highly effective pork producer and processor ecosystem, which delivers safe and nutritious pork products all across the globe.
