October is National Pork Month, and we’re excited to highlight the Nebraska Pork Producers Association (NPPA), a loyal partner of Raising Nebraska. Representing 1,137 pig farms, NPPA plays a key role in supporting Nebraska’s economy and promoting sustainable pork production. Nebraska ranks 6th in the nation for pork production, marketing 7.8 million pigs annually and contributing over $6 billion to the state’s economy.
You may have seen the Nebraska Pork Producers Association (NPPA) in action at Raising Nebraska during the Nebraska State Fair, where they host popular cooking demonstrations with Chef Nader from Billy’s Restaurant in Lincoln, serving delicious pork dishes while educating visitors. NPPA’s impact extends far beyond food; they advocate for farmers and promote the health benefits of pork to Nebraskans.
As a Raising Nebraska partner, NPPA helps ensure that agriculture thrives across the state. So, join us in celebrating National Pork Month and recognizing the hardworking pork producers who make Nebraska a leader in agriculture!
