The Oklahoma Pork Council is proud to share that Joe Popplewell, longtime Oklahoma pork producer and past council president, is seeking election to the National Pork Producers Council Board of Directors.

Joe has been raising pigs in Oklahoma for more than 30 years and brings hands-on experience from multiple swine production systems. Throughout his career, he has stepped forward to advocate for pork producers and has built strong relationships across the U.S. pork industry. Those connections, combined with his practical, producer-driven perspective, position him well to represent Oklahoma pork at the national level.

Service to the industry has long defined Joe’s leadership. He has served as Oklahoma Pork Council president four times and represented our state through numerous national committees and leadership roles. Joe regularly engages with decision makers at the local, state, and national levels and understands how policy decisions affect farms, families, and rural communities.
