According to the well-known butterfly effect, a butterfly fluttering its wings in Brazil has the potential to cause a tornado in the United States. Have you seen this butterfly effect in action in agriculture?

Agriculture has never been an isolated industry — it is closely related to human health, the environment and the climate. Every decision made and solution adopted by the agriculture industry not only affects every link in the entire industrial chain; they also influence the sustainable development of humans, animals and the environment and ultimately affect the future of our planet.

Successfully meeting the challenges of agriculture will require us to think holistically about every aspect of the industry, from raw materials to feed, and from animal performance and health to the delivery of safe, high-quality protein products to consumers. But we must also stay focused on finding ways to positively impact the environment while remaining profitable.

Join us for a seminar and discussion about how to think holistically about all aspects of sustainable farming as we work to build a sustainable agri-food system.
