According to a US agriculture department official, crop reports will continue to be released during stock exchange trading hours. The reports will carry on in spite of complaints that high-speed traders have access to the data before it becomes available on public websites, reported international news agency Reuters.
Crop reports used to be released when grain markets were closed. However, last year the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) began releasing its key monthly crop reports to the open grain market.

As the International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE)
draws closer, event organisers have announced a partnership with the
Hard Rock Cafe chain to offer a pig pin, which will be on sale during
the Expo.
IPPE organisers chose the pin to celebrate the introduction of a new pork and swine pavilion and the VIV International Pork Production Summit education program at the upcoming 2014 Expo.
The pig pin will be on sale in the main lobby near attendee registration during IPPE show hours, as well as at the Hard Rock Cafe Atlanta, located at 215 Peachtree Street, Atlanta, USA.

A new EU-funded project, is currently being coordinated in the UK by The Food and Environment Research Agency (FERA) in collaboration with China, Africa and mainland Europe.
In light of the increasing notion that insects can be utilised as an alternative protein source, the 'PROteINSECT' project is working to drive changes to EU legislation. Current legislation prohibits the inclusion of protein derived from insects in animal feed, with the exception of feed intended for fish or shellfish.
Those involved in the PROteinSECT project hope that the research results will help promote the use of insects in pig and poultry feed in the future, particularly as these animals already consume insects as part of their natural diet.
