Title
Pork Checkoff - The Other White Meat: pork, recipes, ham, cooking, producers
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Pork producers and importers pay 0.40 of one percent of the market value of each animal, which is 40 cents per $100 in value. It generates about $50 million per year. Pork producers, through committees and a national business meeting, direct and audit how those funds are used. Approximately 20 percent, a rate recommended by the Pork Act delegates at the National Pork Industry Forum, is returned to state pork associations for their checkoff-funded work and oversight by individual state producer leadership.
