In 2020, IFB, Illinois Pork Producers Association, Illinois Milk Producers’ Association, and Illinois Beef Association continued their support of livestock farmers by providing answers to their regulatory questions and sharing educational opportunities and resources to help meet industry regulations and protect the environment.
These organizations continue to share resource guides for swine, beef, and dairy operations. These guides are meant to provide members with a “first step” toward understanding whether and how environmental rules and regulations impact their operations. These resource guides have been distributed widely and help ensure compliance and increase confidence.
This program is offered to livestock farms of all sizes, with a special focus on small and medium-sized operations.
