Nearly 600 Animal Food Industry Professionals Do Business at AFIA's PISC in Orlando, FL

The American Feed Industry Association (AFIA) held its annual Purchasing and Ingredient Suppliers Conference (PISC) from March 7-9, bringing together 580 animal food ingredient buyers and sellers from across the country to Orlando, FL, for three days of educational programming, business meetings and networking opportunities.

“In all aspects – PISC 2023 proved to be a roaring success,” said Rebecca Kane, CMP, AFIA’s director of meetings and events.

“Animal food industry buyers and sellers showed up ready to meet colleagues, do business and learn about current trends. PISC truly is where business gets done.”

“Leaders in the feed industry have been implementing innovative and environmentally responsible practices for a while, but they just have not been getting attention for it,” said Ellen Dierenfeld, WWF’s lead specialist in sustainable feed innovations.

“Now, we have the opportunity to elevate feed’s potential positive impact and show it can make a big difference, particularly for farmers and producers of livestock and poultry. We must consider the ingredients and also the technologies that will make it possible to reduce agriculture’s overall environmental impact.”
