　　Sow Housing Calculator
　　豬舍計算
　　A new Sow Housing Calculator will assist producers in making important decisions about remodeling or other facility or management choices on the farm.
　　當生產商在制定改建或其他農場管理選擇的重大決策時，一項新的豬舍計算器能幫助他們。
　　Created in the context of remodeling sow barns, this new calculator can also be used to model the financial impact of any management or facility choices to a sow farm, including:
　　建立在改建豬舍的內容上，這個計算器也能用來模擬任何管理項目或設備選擇的經濟效應，包括：
　　· Changes in nutrition
　　營養變化
　　· Changes in herd size
　　豬群規模變化
　　· Remodeling or replacing housing choices
　　改建或重新選址
　　Once the data is added, the calculator generates a report of the needed cash flow and cost per pig information that may be required by a lender.
　　一旦輸入數據，計算機能生成貸款人所需的現金流動和每頭豬的成本信息。
　　"Pork producers have many options available to them, each with its own cost and benefit," says Chris Novak, National Pork Board CEO. "The new Sow Housing Calculator will help producers look at the facility and management choices that are best for them and the pigs in their care."
　　“豬肉生產商有許多可用的選擇，每一個都有它自己的成本和利益” 全國豬肉委員會的CEO Chris Novak說“新的豬舍計算機能幫助生產商查看為他們和他們的豬提供的最好設備和管理項目。”

Benchmarking Workplace Safety
　　基準測試工作點安全性
　　A new website to provide reliable methods of benchmarking workplace safety is being developed by the Pork Checkoff to track and compare workplace safety data across farm systems and between peer companies.
　　新的網站支持了可靠的基準車間安全方法，它由Pork Checkoff公司研發，追蹤對比整個農場系統以及同行業公司的工作點安全性。
　　"You cannot improve what you cannot measure. This new benchmarking system will provide producers quantifiable indicators that will allow them to compare workplace safety on their farms with others in the industry. More importantly, producers can use this benchmarking tool to evaluate various actions that can reduce future accidents and injuries," Novak says. "With strong participation from the industry, we will be able to measure the improvements that we make over time as we work together to reduce the most common injuries on our hog farms."
　　“你不能改善您所沒有測量到的東西。這個最新的基礎測試系統能提供給生產者可量化的指標，并允許本農場和同行業的其他公司對比他們的工作點安全性。更重要的是，生產者能使用這個基準工具評估各種能減少未來事故和傷害的行為。” Novak說“有了行業的強大支持，當我們一起致力于減少我們豬場最常見的損害時，我們能評定我們隨時所做的改進情況。
　　"Our industry has adopted a set of ethical principle that includes our commitment to enhancing workplace safety for our families and employees. Improving workplace safety can reduce costs and improve performance, but most importantly, it is the right thing for us to do."
　　“我們的行業采用了一定的道德原則，包括為我們的家庭和員工提供我們增強工作點安全性的承諾。改善工作點的安全性能減少成本，改善性能，但是最重要的是，它是我們所做的一件正確的事。”
　　The Benchmarking Workplace Safety system will be available June 17 and may be accessed via pork.org.
