　　猪肉基金会宣布了一项新式，改进的工具帮助猪肉生产商评估猪舍选择的经济效应，减少环境污染和育种的相关问题。
　　Sow Housing Calculator
　　猪舍计算
　　A new Sow Housing Calculator will assist producers in making important decisions about remodeling or other facility or management choices on the farm.
　　当生产商在制定改建或其他农场管理选择的重大决策时，一项新的猪舍计算器能帮助他们。
　　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:
　　建立在改建猪舍的内容上，这个计算器也能用来模拟任何管理项目或设备选择的经济效应，包括：
　　· Changes in nutrition
　　营养变化
　　· Changes in herd size
　　猪群规模变化
　　· Remodeling or replacing housing choices
　　改建或重新选址
　　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.
　　一旦输入数据，计算机能生成贷款人所需的现金流动和每头猪的成本信息。
　　"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."
　　“猪肉生产商有许多可用的选择，每一个都有它自己的成本和利益” 全国猪肉委员会的CEO Chris Novak说“新的猪舍计算机能帮助生产商查看为他们和他们的猪提供的最好设备和管理项目。”

Benchmarking Workplace Safety
　　基准测试工作点安全性
　　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.
　　新的网站支持了可靠的基准车间安全方法，它由Pork Checkoff公司研发，追踪对比整个农场系统以及同行业公司的工作点安全性。
　　"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."
　　“你不能改善您所没有测量到的东西。这个最新的基础测试系统能提供给生产者可量化的指标，并允许本农场和同行业的其他公司对比他们的工作点安全性。更重要的是，生产者能使用这个基准工具评估各种能减少未来事故和伤害的行为。” Novak说“有了行业的强大支持，当我们一起致力于减少我们猪场最常见的损害时，我们能评定我们随时所做的改进情况。
　　"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."
　　“我们的行业采用了一定的道德原则，包括为我们的家庭和员工提供我们增强工作点安全性的承诺。改善工作点的安全性能减少成本，改善性能，但是最重要的是，它是我们所做的一件正确的事。”
