Feral hogs have become increasingly detrimental in Georgia, causing significant damage to agricultural crops and natural resources throughout the state. The economic impact of damage caused by feral swine in Georgia is estimated at $150 million. A group of agricultural and natural resource organizations are partnering to bring Georgia’s top experts on feral hogs together in a series of educational workshops for farmers and landowners.

Partnering agencies will host a workshop and trapping demonstration on May 28th, 2026, at Traditions Venue located at 410 GA-87 Bus Cochran, Ga 31014. The workshop will be in the evening from 5:00pm to 8:45pm with dinner provided and is sponsored by the Central Ga Soil and Water Conservation District.

Topics will include disease issues, hog biology, economics, water quality issues, effective control techniques, transport issues, and regulations to be followed by a question-and-answer panel of experts. Each workshop will also include a feral swine trapping demonstration.

Partnering agencies for this effort include the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service, USDA Wildlife Services, Georgia Association of Conservation Districts, Georgia Department of Natural Resources - Wildlife Resources Division, Georgia Department of Agriculture, and University of Georgia Warnell School of Forestry & Natural Resources.

There is no cost to attend the workshops, but space is limited. Pre-registration is required. More details and registration information are available at www.GACD.us/events.
