Indiana livestock and grain leaders are coming together for a major summit focused on the future of animal agriculture.
The Indiana Corn Growers Association and Indiana Soybean Alliance will host the Livestock Summit on June 23rd, bringing together leaders from across Indiana’s livestock and grain sectors to discuss the future of animal agriculture.
Summit organizer Emily McNiff says, “The purpose of it is to bring together the crop and livestock sectors to talk about opportunities, challenges, innovation. Because when our livestock producers succeed, our grain farmers succeed. And we’re just so interconnected with our various priorities. And we wanted an opportunity to bring all of those different sectors together.”
Industry leaders, producers, and agribusiness professionals are expected to discuss challenges facing animal agriculture, including market volatility, production efficiency, sustainability, and evolving consumer demands. The summit will also showcase emerging technologies and strategies aimed at helping both livestock and grain producers remain competitive.
McNiff adds, “We’re bringing together feed partners. We’re bringing together livestock farmers, suppliers, and maybe just a stronger understanding of how we can all collaborate and work together to just continue to make the Indiana farmers profitable.”
The Livestock Summit will take place June 23rd as Indiana agriculture leaders continue working to position the state’s livestock and grain industries for long-term success.
