What's Keeping the Feed Industry Up at Night?

Wednesday, Jan. 29 from 10:00 a.m. – noon

GWCC room TBA

Rate: $79 early-bird; $90 after Jan. 11 (registration opens Oct. 7)

Join us for a critical discussion on the most pressing challenges facing the animal feed industry. This 2-hour symposium dives deep into three key areas that are keeping producers and industry experts awake at night: Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) and its recent presence in dairy cows, the ongoing battle against African Swine Fever (ASF) and its implication in feed production, and finally, the ever-evolving challenge of bridging the nutrient gap when animal genetics outpace published requirements.
