Patrick Yeich

Biography

Patrick was born and raised in Eastern North Carolina and had no exposure to agriculture until he began his undergraduate career at North Carolina State University. During his first semester at NC State, he enjoyed labs at the swine teaching unit and enjoyed learning about all aspects of swine production.  This experience led Patrick to work as an Undergraduate Research Assistant for the next three years.  He was able to complete research and extension projects spanning all areas of swine production.

Patrick became interested in the Ellis Lab Program because of the focus on the entire production system and the Program’s connection with The Maschhoffs.
