Ms Moody will provide visionary leadership to IFEEDER's activities including programme development, strategic partnerships and collaborative resourcing. Working closely with IFEEDER's Board of Trustees and committee members, she will develop and support resources and related efforts to advance the public charity's research and education mission.

Collaborating with the American Feed Industry Association to pursue and communicate the institute's work, she will create opportunities to engage donors and further the dialogue on important issues impacting the feed industry.

'As the animal food industry evolves, innovates and works to address emerging global challenges, we need visionary leadership to ask the tough questions, provide reliable data and research and engage with stakeholders and the food chain to advance solutions and understand the issues that impact our business,' says IFEEDER's President and AFIA's President and CEO Constance Cullman.

'Lara's demonstrated thought leadership, experience building initiatives and programs, background in sustainability and success in managing industry and academic research programs, will position IFEEDER to successfully fulfil its research and education focus for the future.'

Ms Moody joined IFEEDER from The Fertiliser Institute, where she served as the vice president of stewardship and sustainability. In this position, she led the development and implementation of The Fertiliser Institute's programs to increase the use and adoption of fertiliser best management practices and oversaw sustainability initiatives related to fertiliser production and its use in the field. Ms Moody has also worked in research and extension programs at Iowa State University and the University of Tennessee.

Ms Moody holds a bachelor's degree in agricultural engineering and master's degree in biosystems engineering from the University of Tennessee-Knoxville.
