International Feed Regulators Meeting

02/01/2023

The 16th Annual International Feed Regulators meeting, organized by the International Feed Industry Federation and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, recently was held at the 2023 IPPE.

 

The organizers of the meeting confirmed the importance of collaboration between the public and private sectors to support animal production and to promote sustainable agriculture and food systems.

 

Topics considered at the meeting included nutritional strategies to improve animal health and welfare, an update of the Codex Alimentarius relating to livestock feed.  A workshop on emerging feed sources and technologies was also incorporated into the program. 

 

Daniela Battaglia of the Food and Agriculture Organization, commented, “Feed operators could contribute to animal production and food sectors, enhancing sustainability and suppression of antimicrobial resistance. This would promote public, animal and environmental health.”

 

Reuud Tijssens, Chairman of the International Feed Industry Federation, noted, “This dialogue is an important example of the private sector collaborating with the FAO and regulators from around the world.  We believe that only by working together can we continue to ensure feed and food security and safety while meeting the global demands for food sustainability.”
