2014 PIG INDUSTRY YEARBOOK

Australian Pork Limited (APL) – Pork industry year in review 2013

ANDREW SPENCER CEO, Australian Pork Limited

his year was in many ways a year of consolidation for the Australian pork industry. Production volumes remained relatively flat, prices stabilised at levels which would be traditionally judged as attractive and grain prices whilst high were tempered by what was for most of the year a high Australian dollar. Industry productivity shows signs of consistent improvement and consumers continue their experimentation and learning with our product, shifting it closer to a default choice for their family meals. Market issues It’s clear that the years of processing numbers above the five million per annum mark are, for the time being, gone for our industry. Since the correction in production volumes, due to the industry profitability crisis of 2007–2008, volatility in production numbers has decreased with a reduction in opportunistic pig farming and a dependence on the contribution of dedicated pig farming professionals as the solid backbone of our production numbers. Production numbers to the end of June 2013 are in the vicinity of 4.75 million pigs, with an increase in average carcase sizes up around 75 kg, leading to a total production above 355,000 tonnes for the year.

This is an increase of around one per cent over the preceding year. Like the previous year, our average farm gate pig prices also reflect a new stability, avoiding the usual pattern of higher prices at the start and end of the year, with lower prices in the middle of the year. More and more this is looking like a longer-term trend rather than a shortterm anomaly, which in the end is good for the financial security of our industry. One of our so far unexplained curiosities for the year has been the increase in the volume of pork imported into Australia. Given the flat pork export volumes, slowly increasing domestic production and the stable and historically high pig prices reflecting solid demand, it is difficult to explain why imported pork volumes are on the rise. Various theories exist, including the theory of an aggressive marketing drive by the Netherlands to send their middles to our shores at the expense of Danish product. Other North American price promotions may well have also led to increased opportunistic buying that resulted in higher than normal levels of stock of imported frozen pork in our warehouses. If this theory is correct, we should eventually see a return to normal stock levels through a reduction in import volumes. Uncertainty around conditions for the production of grain around the world led to big increases in grain prices in mid 2012. These conditions have not completely disappeared, meaning that grain has remained relatively expensive in historical terms, but the strength of the Australian dollar has meant that the full impact has been diluted for our producers. The present outlook is for supply constraints to loosen, leading to a softening of prices going into 2014 given reasonable climatic conditions. Our information coming from the industry relating to their productivity seems to be indicating an improvement in important industry indices such as pigs born per litter. Productivity improvements like these underpin the ability of our producers to retain profitability with high grain prices, albeit in a more consistent pig pricing environment. Shaping our future Our industry’s voluntary sow stall phase

2014 PIG INDUSTRY YEARBOOK

out initiative continues to attract the attention of the community, our consumers, government and regulators in a positive sense. Towards the end of last year, our Annual Industry Survey (AIS) told us that more than half of our pigs are produced on farms which do not use sow stalls. This initiative which we refer to as ‘Shaping Our Future’ is costing the industry an estimated $50 million in on-farm capital costs. It is also attracting international attention, pitching our industry forward as a global leader. It is having a compelling impact on the marketing of pigs with the two major supermarket retailers, which command through their purchase criteria that their supply chains should not be using sow stalls. We have recently made an optional module of the Australian Pork Industry Quality assurance system (APIQ) available for meeting the standard for being gestation stall free, giving more integrity to product claims being made through the chain. Markets and supply chains Our pork promotional activities on behalf of our producers continue to build demand for our products. These occur through our well-known ‘Get Some Pork On Your Fork’ television and radio advertising, our PorkFest trade activities through the normally higher supply period commencing around Easter, our PorkStar food service campaigns that inspire chefs and our PorkMark campaign selling the attributes of Australian pork which is about more than just where it comes from. One of the more limiting factors in enabling higher fresh pork consumption is pork production – the relatively flat production volumes over recent years means any increase in demand is more likely to be realised through higher prices rather than higher consumption. The new standards for pork production for the key retailers is also promoting higher use of Australian pork for processed products like ham and bacon for their branded offerings, leaving less for sale as fresh pork. The certified standards available through our quality assurance scheme for free range and outdoor bred pork is also contributing to more consistency and certainty in the market around production system claims.

Pork CRC – Year in review 2013

Dr ROGER CAMPBELL CEO, Australian Pork CRC

ustralia’s pork industry has moved quite rapidly to group housing of pregnant sows in 2013 at a time when producers have enjoyed reasonable and stable pig prices and haven’t really been disadvantaged compared to global competitors in terms of feed costs. Longer term success continues to be linked with further differentiating our industry based on how our pork is produced and ensuring it is of consistently high eating quality. This all fits with the modus operandi of the CRC For High Integrity Australian Pork, which, I’m pleased to report, is having substantial positive impacts on Australia’s pork industry. We’ve achieved excellent outcomes across our R&D and Utilisation programs that will assist producers to maximise animal welfare and performance in group housed systems for sows, offer opportunities for further differentiating how we manage sows and piglets and to increase the eating quality and demand for Australian pork. In Program 1 – Reduced Confinement of Sows and Piglets – we released the manual ‘Feeding Pregnant Sows in Group Housing Systems – An Update’. Published in conjunction with APL, it provides information generated by Pork

CRC researchers on the effects on sow performance of feeding levels in early and late gestation. The research outcomes effectively turned upside down the traditional ‘rules’ of how to feed pregnant sows. Most relevant to group housed sows, has been the finding that higher feeding levels in early gestation has no adverse effects on subsequent reproduction, and there is increasing evidence that higher feeding levels may enhance subsequent reproduction, especially in more prolific genotypes. These findings are very pertinent to group housed sows because higher feeding levels and greater access to feed after mixing can help reduce aggression and enhance welfare. University of Adelaide and SARDI researchers showed that in late gestation increasing feed intake in the final 3-6 weeks of gestation had little or no effect on piglet birth weight or survival and no obvious effects on sow reproduction, suggesting the practice may be a waste of feed and for younger sows feed intake could be reduced in lactation. Researchers have also developed protocols to induce oestrus in lactating sows, showing that it’s possible to achieve similar levels of reproductive performance in sows mated during lactation to those conventionally weaned and mated. This is innovative R&D at its very best, because similar outcomes have not previously been achieved and the research could enable weaning age to be increased and piglet performance and heath improved, without adversely affecting reproduction. Linked with this, our research on alternative farrowing systems has shown there are many farrowing systems which provide the sow with more room and freedom, but all have different performance and welfare outcomes and implications. Our researchers have also shown that most of the freedom-type pens developed for Europe require modification for Australian situations, especially for our summer. One of the projects was conducted on Melville Charles’ farm and managed by Geordie Charles and Clara Singh, a Pork CRC postgraduate student with the University of Melbourne. They looked at the welfare and performance of sows and piglets farrowed in conventional crates, but moved to pens or crates three days after birth. In Clara’s work there was no effect of housing, after three

days, on piglet survival or performance to weaning, but more positive welfare outcomes for sows and piglets housed in pens subsequent to three days. In a larger project in the same facilities, however, piglet survival was significantly lower in the lactating pen and this is a common outcome with the alterative farrowing systems to date. The project continues to collect more welfare and performance data and we thank Melville and Geordie for access to their facilities and their excellent inputs and contributions. For sows grouped in gestation, management and feeding immediately after mixing appears to be one of the secrets to success based on sow welfare and reproduction. All Pork CRC commercial participants have converted from gestation crates to group housing and all do it differently from one another and across their units. All are achieving good to excellent results. Program 2 – Herd Health Management – has seen the development of new diagnostics for a range of pathogens, progress on selecting pigs for robustness and disease resilience and some very novel alternative health therapies, with a project managed by Dr Jae Kim at DAFWA showing that the impact of E. coli infection on animal performance and health can be markedly reduced by including some common but novel ingredients in the diet. Other researchers are investigating how dietary fibre and specific amino acids affect E. coli disease. In Program 3 – Healthy Pork Consumption – Heather Channon, APL and Frank Dunshea, University of Melbourne, caught everyone’s attention, including processors, wholesalers and retailers, when they published the first results of four projects on eating quality pathways for Australian pork. They showed that some cuts, particularly the loin, had high fail rates based on consumer perception of eating quality and repurchase intentions. The fail rate for the loin was as high as 36%, clearly a constraint on enhancing demand and purchases of high integrity Australian pork. However, the research outcomes enable us to also identify pathways to premium quality pork and to develop interventions to reduce the fail rate and it is the first time we have ever had such quantitative data based on consumer perceptions/preferences.

PORK CRC YEAR IN REVIEW CONTINUED FROM Pg 5

The latter is essential, because the research has clearly demonstrated little relationship between the more traditional measures of pork quality and what the industry and researchers might think contributes to good eating quality and what the consumer thinks. This is exciting research with the potential to lead to greater demand for Australian pork and greater returns for producers, although the responsibility for improving eating quality goes well beyond the farm gate. We’ve had similar breakthroughs in our research on the human health attributes of Australian pork. Dr Samir Samman from the University of Sydney showed the plasma indicators of human health differed between participants consuming pork and chicken. Histidine, in particular, was significantly and consistently higher in the plasma of people after consuming pork than chicken. Histidine is a positive indicator of cardio-vascular health (effects) and of weight loss, and his results may explain some of our previous research in which participants consuming pork lost weight compared to those who remained on their ‘normal’ diets or were put on alternative diets. We have one long term project with the University of South Australia and shorter term innovation projects looking at the effects of pork on human health and I expect the outcomes will have considerable implications. I’ve no doubt, as I’ve said before, “There is something about pork” and hopefully we can confirm and define its positive effects on human health. Program 4 - Carbon Conscious Nutrient Inputs and Outputs – successfully established the Bioenergy Support Program (BSP) at the University of Queensland where BSP leader Dr Stephan Tait has worked tirelessly advising producers, regulators and others on the installation and operation of effective biogas systems. Outcomes from research on grain processing and feed manufacture continue to demonstrate that we can more efficiently prepare grain and feed for pigs. Our research on NIRS to rapidly determine the nutritive value of grains and protein meals has demonstrated considerable variation in the DE of grains and the reactive lysine content of soy bean meal and canola meal. For grains, much of the variation is associated with growing conditions and can only be account for in diet formulation by using AusScan calibrations to measure what you have. Active research Research in all programs is extremely active and our researchers remain enthusiastic and innovative, hence on behalf of the board and industry I thank them all for their contributions to Pork CRC. Without them, our students and our participants, who work closely with researchers and students, the technologies and knowledge needed to differentiate the Australian industry would not be generated. Keniry contribution Dr John Keniry stepped down as Pork CRC Chair in November, 2013 after chairing the first Pork CRC for six years and the CRC for High Integrity Australian Pork (HIAP) for its first 29 months. A unique individual, skilled in management, science and research, John has always enjoyed the respect of all directors and staff. His leadership was pivotal to the success of the first Pork CRC and the establishment and effectiveness of CRC HIAP. He has helped me enormously and his guidance and advice will be missed. On behalf of the directors, staff and participants of Pork CRC, I thank John for all he has done and wish him the best in his future endeavours. Likewise, I wish his successor as Pork CRC Chair, Dennis Mutton, all the best and I’m confident Dennis will build on John’s great work, while putting his own stamp on a CRC that is very highly regarded within and without the wide world of pork and pigs. www.porkcrc.com.au

APL YEAR IN REVIEW CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4

Activism and farm invasions Despite the industry’s historic voluntary shift away from sow stalls, there are some in our community who will not be satisfied, no matter what our industry does to improve our product for consumers. Notably, during 2012–2013, Animals Australia ran the ‘Make It Possible’ anti socalled-factory-farming campaign targeting, amongst others, the pork industry. Our voluntary phase-out of the use of sow stalls has helped to expose the real agendas of organisations such as this: that they will never support industries that ‘exploit’ animals and that their calls to change our practices are insincere, because they will not change their practices towards us even though we have changed ours. The year has seen a spate of illegal farm invasion activity from anti-farming radicals on pig farms. This has been particularly distressing for those producers affected and threatened to impact on the reputation of our industry and the consumption of our product. APL continues to work to reduce the number and impact of farm invasions, through legal means, communication activities, policing discussions, regulator relations and membership information. Resources and levies The business year 2012–2013 saw the raising of an additional $1.3 million (approximately) in marketing levies for use by APL. The majority of the extra funding was directed towards improving the scale of our pork consumer advertising efforts, giving us a better return on investment from our campaigns. The next year will see the second tranche of our marketing levy increase implemented. In the meantime, we continue to take the responsibility of wisely using our producers’ resources to best effect. A strong cost management and efficiency improvement culture has led to the lowest ‘non employment corporate costs’ budget that APL has ever had for the 2013–2014 year. Our employment costs also track at well below inflation for year-to-year movements over the longer term. Engagement and advocacy Last year, 2012, APL became a member of the National Farmers Federation (NFF). This has so far been an interesting journey, giving us a much improved insight into the world of agricultural advocacy for other commodities. One thing is for sure – the APL ‘one stop shop’ model for the provision of industry services looks exceptionally attractive when

one sees the varied and convoluted bodies and linkages trying to provide services to much larger agricultural industries. It is a serious matter for agriculture as a whole that the advocacy and representation system is at significant threat for our industry. This is important for pork as it is for all other agricultural commodities, and we are engaged as a stakeholder seeking solutions through better unity, leadership and ultimately financial commitment to a renewed agricultural advocacy system. All sectors of agriculture need to make this issue their own and commit to finding a path forward. Strategic planning 2015–2020 Our APL Strategic Plan 2010–2015 is in its last year as a guiding industry document for 2013–2014. In the year ahead we are taking on the job of renewing the industry’s and APL’s strategy – finding our 2020 vision.

“The initiatives and achievements of our industry in the recent past have enabled us to stand back and derive a concept of building our brand – Australian pork – to be much more than just about where our pigs are raised.” This has been a big job to date and has not been taken lightly. We have engaged with the industry at all levels to get the input into what sort of industry we want to be working in by the end of the decade. We have and will be challenging ourselves and our producers to come up with creative ideas that can underpin solid strategies for the future. The consultation process for the development of the new strategic plan has been comprehensive, not only with our producers, but also with the supply chain, industry suppliers, government and regulators and interest groups like the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA). Product differentiation Our product is Australian pork. It competes substantially with two types of alternative products, overseas produced pork and Australian beef, lamb or chicken. The initiatives and achievements of our industry

in the recent past (and through an industryrecognised core competence of leadership and embracing change) have enabled us to stand back and derive a concept of building our brand – Australian pork – to be much more than just about where our pigs are raised. For a lot of reasons, many relating to global trading arrangements and subsidies, Australia is not going to be the world’s lowest cost pork producer any time soon. We have to be worth the extra money that we cost, and building the values into our brand, associated with how our product is produced and the pleasure in the experience of eating it will be our aim. There are many such brand values, including the quality and safety of our product, the standards of our production around biosecurity and animal welfare, our low environmental footprint and emissions profile and importantly, our eating quality. Using differentiators like these to build our brand to represent more than it has in the past is sure to be a key discussion topic at the consultation meetings for our new strategy. APL opperations At its essence, the job of APL is a simple one – to help reduce the costs and risks associated with pig farming whilst increasing demand and opportunity for our product in the market. Of course, the complexity comes with deciding the best way to do this. The processes around how we decide what to do on behalf of our industry continue to evolve in a positive way, involving economic analysis, independent committees, expert referees and ‘after the fact’ assessment. Ultimately, we will be judged by our producers and members as to how well we do this, and we encourage feedback relating to this. Most pig farmers will never know the personalities sitting in Canberra and other parts of the country working hard on their behalf. If they did, I think they would be impressed at their commitment and passion in belonging to an industry and an organisation of which they feel proud. On behalf of the industry, I’d like to thank these people, not only for the effort that they put in, but for the achievements that they realise to improve the lot of the pig farmer. I’d also like to thank the APL Board who continue to provide the support and the challenge to management to ensure we are doing our best. Andrew Spencer Chief Executive Officer
