(NAFB.com) – At the 2025 World Pork Expo, leaders from the National Pork Producers Council delivered a clear message: the pork industry’s future will be strengthened by a united, proactive approach to advocacy. NPPC leaders outlined how a comprehensive, coordinated strategy is delivering results for America’s pork producers. From local legislation to global trade, the panel emphasized that challenges facing producers require alignment across all levels of policy influence, including state, federal, international, and corporate. “Our advocacy focused on defending the freedom to operate and making sure every producer, regardless of size or location, has a voice,” said NPPC President Duane Stateler. Bryan Humphreys, NPPC CEO, talked about the importance of persistence and bipartisan engagement in Washington, D.C. “Wins take time, and there is a lot of important work happening behind the scenes,” Humphreys said. “Staying at the table across administration changes and political divides is how to make lasting change.”
