Analysis
The article highlights the National Pig Association’s role in representing British commercial pig producers and advocating for their interests in government, the supply chain, and the wider industry. While the article does not explicitly discuss the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it indirectly addresses two SDGs and their corresponding targets and indicators.
SDG 2: Zero Hunger
The National Pig Association’s work aligns with SDG 2, which aims to end hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture. The association’s advocacy for pig producers contributes to Target 2.3, which seeks to double the agricultural productivity and incomes of small-scale food producers, including through access to resources, knowledge, and markets. The indicator for this target is the agricultural productivity and incomes of small-scale food producers.
SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
The National Pig Association’s efforts also align with SDG 12, which focuses on responsible consumption and production patterns. The association’s work in the pig industry contributes to Target 12.3, which aims to reduce food waste and losses along production and supply chains. The indicator for this target is per capita global food waste.
Overall, the National Pig Association’s activities support the goals of ending hunger, promoting sustainable agriculture, and reducing food waste, as outlined in the SDGs.
