Amy Loschen of the Tri-Point FFA chapter in Cullom, Illinois, has had a passion for swine from a young age. Her SAE began with two gilts that she first showed as a 4-H member and then bred. Today, her farrow-to-finish operation has grown to 23 litters. Loschen enjoys using her knowledge of genetics and swine to breed a better pig. She is supported by her mother and FFA advisor Diana and father Gary. This award is sponsored by LA-CO Markal and Tyson Foods, Inc.
