Registration is open for the American Feed Industry Association's biennial Feed Industry Institute (FII), happening June 11-14 in St. Louis, MO. The conference, which has been held every other year since merging with the National Feed Ingredients Association, brings together roughly 125 individuals in the industry to learn the basics of the animal food manufacturing process -- from the types of foods used to the animals served to federal policies that shape the output of the industry.
FII is ideal for people who are new to the animal food industry, as it provides a good overview of animal health and nutrition. Throughout the four-day educational program, industry experts share practical information and best practices for attendees, who will leave with an understanding of how to manufacture high-quality animal food, as well as why doing so is essential for animal productivity and well-being.
Registration is $800 for AFIA members and $1,000 for non-members. For more information about FII and to register, visit the event's website or contact Connie Samuels, AFIA's manager of meetings and events, at (703) 558-3573.
