Pork producers want action on labor.
Industry leaders told Minnesota state ag lawmakers that they need help.
“When you think about the labor that’s necessary for providing care to the animals in our barns, it takes a skilled workforce.

As far as the people that are here and able to provide some of the labor, there’s just a shortage,” said Daryl Timmerman.
