USSEC provides RAPCO feed manufacturing course

The IGP Institute hosted industry professionals to learn about feed manufacturing

Current 2018 United States Department of Agriculture projections indicate that over two million bushels of US soybeans will be exported globally and are likely to be used as a feed ingredient for various livestock species. In order for participants to learn more about feed manufacturing, US Soybean Export Council (USSEC) partnered with the IGP Institute to offer the USSEC Regional Agriculture Production Course (RAPCO) Feed Manufacturing Course held August 21-24, 2018.

The training hosted 30 feed millers from Latin America to learn the proper methods of feed storage, feed safety, pelleting, extrusion processing, feed mill design, quality control and other topics. The feed mill operators were provided with basic level feed manufacturing modules through distance education before arriving on-site. Once at the IGP Institute, the program covered advanced level topics and gave participants the opportunity to learn through hands-on lectures.
