Sacramento – A Prop 12 Market Study Tour

March 18-21, 2024

California’s Prop 12 has brought changes and uncertainty to the pork industry, leaving Iowa farmers with many questions about the future of pork production and regulatory compliance in general. Iowa Farm Bureau will lead a market study tour for members to visit California and gain updates and insight directly from stakeholders impacted by Prop 12 as well as the government officials implementing the policy.

Members will also have the opportunity to network with California farmers, meat distributors, food retailers, researchers and other food and agricultural experts to gain a better understanding of changing livestock practices and compliance and see what’s on the horizon that could impact their farms.
