Meet The Real Pork Trust Consortium Research Team
We work together to communicate transparently about the research behind pork production and pork products so diverse audiences have the information they need to make educated choices about their food.
Our team is comprised of researchers across disciplines at multiple universities, all focused on answering questions consumers have about the overall pork industry and how we are raising pigs, consuming pork, and caring for the planet.
