The Animal Nutrition Working Group is a technical advisory panel for the Animal Agriculture Initiative and the Soybean Checkoff consisting of feed industry and consulting animal nutritionists. With 16 members on the working group they serve as a technical advisory panel to the United Soybean Board on issues concerning soybeans and animal nutrition. Work focuses on soybean meal and its continuing place as the primary protein source for feed rations. The three top priorities of the Animal Nutrition Working Group are: - Composition
- Processing
- Measurement
The working group is working on these areas in support of the Domestic Marketing Committee through advice on proposals, Qualified State Soybean Boards with critical research review, and the Analytical Measurements and Markets Standards task force with recommendations on research. |
