SUSTAINABLE PORK: A SOLUTION FOR TODAY’S CONSUMER

> “Pork is one of the few foods that checks all the boxes [of sustainability]
> because you have affordability, nutrient density, social value across cultures
> and low environmental impact.”


OUR MISSION: MAKE PORK THE MOST SUSTAINABLE MEAT

You’ve heard the buzz about sustainable agriculture. For pork production, that
means doing what’s right for people, pigs, and the planet.

The National Pork Board has developed Pork Cares Farm Impact Reports for all
pork producers to take credit for work you’re already doing on your operation.

These reports will help you measure, document and share your sustainable farm
practices and give you ideas for areas to improve.
