About Us

The Mississippi Pork Producers Association is a producer-led organization representing all pork producers throughout the state of Mississippi. We serve the interests of Mississippi swine producers through educating consumers and producers, funding industry research, promoting pork and pork products, and supporting the overall efforts of Mississippi swine farm families.

Pork production is special in Mississippi. Our producers take the utmost pride in raising their animals with the best care possible. Hear directly from Mississippi pork producers about what makes this industry so special and why they’re proud to be a part of raising pork for families across the state and the country.

Go behind the scenes with Mississippi pork producers and get a closer look at their family farms. Hear their stories, learn about their operations and meet the families behind the pork.
