The second International Pig Livability Conference is approaching quickly, with early registration discounts available only until September 30.
The event will be held November 5–6 at the Hilton Omaha in Omaha, Nebraska, and will bring together swine producers, veterinarians, and allied industry partners to tackle one of the swine industry’s most critical issues—pig survivability.
Jointly organized by Iowa State University and Kansas State University, the conference serves as a key gathering for sharing the latest research and practical strategies to reduce mortality rates in pig production.
It is part of the ongoing Improving Pig Survivability project, a multi-university initiative funded by the National Pork Board and the Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research.
This year’s program features a strong lineup of global experts and interactive sessions designed to spark collaboration across all segments of the swine industry.
Attendees will gain insights from international perspectives, learn from producer success stories, and participate in hands-on breakout sessions focused on innovative solutions for pig health and welfare.
Networking opportunities will allow producers, researchers, and veterinarians to connect, exchange ideas, and build partnerships that advance pig survivability efforts.
The conference aims to create an environment where science and on-farm practices meet, helping participants implement practical strategies to improve pig health and reduce losses.
Organizers emphasize that early registration ensures not only discounted rates but also a guaranteed spot at this high-demand event. With swine health challenges continuing to impact producers worldwide, the conference provides timely information and actionable solutions to strengthen the industry’s future.
Producers, veterinarians, and industry stakeholders are encouraged to secure their registration before the September 30 deadline by visiting the official conference website to learn more and reserve their place at this important global swine health gathering.
