Smithfield Foods

Hog Production Intern

May - July 2020 • Princeton, MO

What I liked

I enjoyed the hands-on experiences working with swine. I learned swine care and production techniques.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more opportunities to connect with other interns across the country and to travel with the internship. Given the global pandemic, I understand that circumstances made intern travel impossible.

Advice

Be willing to do the dirty work! You may just learn some really important lessons and it will definitely give you an appreciation for those who work hard for agriculture.
