I applaud the efforts of the breed association to address this issue. Hopefully, we breeders will all be open in providing information that will help better our breeds. I do have one question though. How does the association intend to work through the information? If there is a process that is transparent, there might be more participation. What you are asking for is information that could potentially impact people greatly in the short run while trying to make things better in the long run. Again, I applaud this type of thinking! We need more of this. But without lots of input the results may be hard to interpret fairly. Lastly, how is the information to be disseminated to us as breeders. I and all of us are interested in things that help us be betters producers of Chesters, Polands, and Spotted hogs. Thanks for all you and the office do to help us!!
