So I asked, and was told that The National Center for Foreign Animal Disease is part of CFIA (Canadian Food Inspection Agency) and is located in the Canadian Science Center for Human and Animal Health which also houses the Public Health Agency of Canada’s National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg, MB. That should be enough governmental alphabet soup to make anyone turn and run the other way, but I decided that I would at least hear them out on what they required from me.  ## [Colony Highlight: Platte Colony, Platte, South Dakota](https://info.newstandard-group.com/blog/hutterite-colony-highlight-platte-colony-platte-south-dakota) ## 02.04.2022 [Jake Peterson](https://info.newstandard-group.com/blog/author/jake-peterson) [![](https://info.newstandard-group.com/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202022-01-26%20at%2011.26.13%20AM.png)](https://info.newstandard-group.com/blog/hutterite-colony-highlight-platte-colony-platte-south-dakota) On a late Fall day, New Standard’s Ben Cochran and marketing staff, Jake Peterson and Celene Olson, were invited to Platte Colony in central South Dakota, about two hours west of Sioux Falls. The opportunity? To learn what the day in the life of a Hutterite looks like. New Standard has had the pleasure of working with many colonies around the US and Canada, and we wanted to highlight the way of the Hutterites.  ## [Save Time, Feed, And Money](https://info.newstandard-group.com/blog/save-time-feed-and-money-by-pig-easy) ## 01.31.2022 [Pig Easy](https://info.newstandard-group.com/blog/author/pig-easy) [![](https://info.newstandard-group.com/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202022-01-26%20at%209.55.05%20AM.png)](https://info.newstandard-group.com/blog/save-time-feed-and-money-by-pig-easy) Success in farming is a matter of making smart choices and finding the right partners.
