Business North Carolina Magazine - May 2, 2022
The North Carolina Pork Council recently created the 2022 Pork Leadership Carolina Program, and our very own Joey Short, Farrowing Department Manager for Peters Creek, has been selected to be a part of the inaugural group! We would also like to recognize Alec Linton for being chosen. Alec is the son of AJ Linton who serves as the Land and Nutrient Management Manager for NC. The three-session program will help further prepare the group for the challenges and opportunities the agriculture industry will encounter in the future, and upon completion of the program, participants will be able to identify the threats facing our industry, confidently engage with neighbors and the media about their farms, as well as foster supportive relationships with key industry stakeholders to promote and protect the pork industry in North Carolina and beyond.
