*Edgar served as a farm manager after becoming eligible to work in Oklahoma's pork industry through the TN Visa program that allows degree holders from Mexico and Canada to accept certain U.S. jobs*

The National Pork Board is working with the University of Missouri to conduct helpful research into the backgrounds and careers of TN Visa holders serving in United States pork production. Knowing the critical role these employees hold in farms throughout our state, the Oklahoma Pork Council is helping to recruit respondents.

If you or anyone on your farm is willing to participate, please contact Magdiel Lopez Soriano at the University of Missouri at 573-445-8375 or mlopezsoriano@missouri.edu. We want to make sure the perspectives of our TN Visa holders here in Oklahoma are included in this relevant study, and we appreciate your help to get the right folks included!
