Notes:
3 pages., Via Silver Anvil Awards., Consumers have questions about how pigs are raised, and no one knows the answers better than pork producers themselves. Activist groups against pig farming have become increasingly active on social media, where the voices of pork producers were relatively silent. As the connection between pork producers and the food industry, the National Pork Board recognized the potential damage this could cause to the pork industry’s reputation. The #RealPigFarming campaign was born out of a need to engage producers in sharing stories from their farms, and contributing to online conversation about pork production. The results surpassed original goals by 2,730 percent.

Notes:
3 pages., Via Silver Anvil Awards., Doubling the world’s food supply in the next 35 years is no small challenge, but that’s what will be required to feed the estimated global population of 9 billion people. That goal will be achieved by increasing production one farmer at a time. Crop production continues to get more complicated with challenges from weather, weed competition, disease, insects and more – and every growing season is unique. Exponent Public Relations brought targeted, relevant, up-to-the-minute solutions to farmers and their consultants by identifying and sharing expertise of local DuPont Crop Protection experts.
