New workshop to discuss hot topics facing the animal food industry

November 8, 2024 - The American Feed Industry Association (AFIA) will be hosting an educational program tackling hot topics facing the animal food industry at the upcoming International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE), happening January 28-30, 2025, in Atlanta, Georgia. The program, 'What's Keeping the Feed Industry up at Night?' will be held on January 29, 2025, from 10am-12pm.

"The animal feed industry is constantly evolving to meet nutritional requirements and address animal health challenges,"said Paul Davis, PhD, AFIA's Director of Quality, Animal Food Safety and Education. "This symposium will bring together voices from the industry to provide attendees with a better understanding of some of the current challenges in which manufacturers are adapting."

This two-hour program will feature speakers on highly pathogenic avian influenza and its recent presence in dairy cows, the ongoing battle against African swine fever and its implication in feed production, and the challenge of bringing the nutrient gap when animal genetics outpace published requirements. This program has been approved for two continuing education credits through the American Registry of Professional Animal Scientists.

'What's Keeping the Feed Industry Up at Night?' registration is now open. Those interested in attending the session are encouraged to register by January 10, to receive the early bird rate of $79. Full agenda and registration information is available on AFIA's website.

IPPE registration is also open, with a discounted price of $85 available through January 10.
