There is little we do can to change these prices. However, if one can improve productivity, feed conversion and generally reduce the cost of production then one is able to sur- vive the low prices and be able to capitalize when prices increase. A seminar entitled "Improving Sow Pro- ductivity and Profitability" is scheduled for Wednesday, December 7, at the Hanover Coliseum from 9:30 am to 3 pm. Topics will include gilt selection and management, nursery and weaner management. cost of production analysis and two farmer panel speakers.
