Swine Extension Program
Montana Swine Symbol of Excellence Program
The Symbol of Excellence program was initiated in 1984
as a joint effort between the MSU Extension Service
and Montana Pork Producers Council as a means of recognizing
youth and swine breeders who select and raise market
hogs that meet carcass merit standards and who demonstrate
a commitment to excellence in producing quality pork
products. Data collected on over 1200 head annually
demonstrates the dramatic progress that has been made
in the quantity and quality of pork obtained from modern
hogs.
