Benefits to Prairie Swine Centre
The Centre gains a voluntary source of funds to partially fill the gap in the business plan created by poor pig prices and the declining check-off funds available for pork associations to allocate to research.

The Centre gains a group of motivated and interested champions that see value in maintaining a strong industry orientated research program.

The sharing of costs incurred to generate knowledge is spread over a greater portion of the industry and better reflects the allocation of benefits to multiple members of the pork value chain. This way the number of champions that take ownership for the Centre as well as the knowledge it develops, increases.
