AFIA opens registration for their Equipment Manufacturers Conference

Registration is now open for the American Feed Industry Association's (AFIA) Equipment Manufacturers Conference, being held November 3-5 in New Orleans, La.
Hosted by the AFIA's Equipment Manufacturers Committee, this annual conference focuses on updating the equipment sector of the feed industry on current issues and trends, providing an environment for learning from educational speakers and industry leaders, and bringing the industry together to network.

'The Equipment Manufacturers Conference addresses many issues pertinent to today's equipment designers, builders and installers who serve the feed, pet food and ingredient industries,' says Gary Huddleston, AFIA's director of feed manufacturing and regulatory affairs. 'AFIA members 'exceed the standard' every day and we believe the EMC does the same, offering a unique opportunity for networking and education on issues and trends relevant to their segment of the industry.'

Themed, 'Exceeding the Standard: Food Safety and Biosecurity,' the three-day event kicks off with the annual golf tournament, which raises money for the Institute for Feed Education and Research's EMC scholarship fund, a program designed to encourage college students to consider careers in the feed or grain sciences.

Educational programs at the conference will also include a panel discussion on food safety and biosecurity practices in feed manufacturing, an update on policy issues being discussed in Washington, D.C., a session on how to develop a food safety and biosecurity culture in your organisation and more.

Early-bird registration runs through September 30, with discounted rates for AFIA members and non-members.
