Vets in poultry symposium

ForFarmers mission ‘For the Future of Farming’ is a statement of commitment, encompassing the whole industry. It refers confdently to the future and expresses our main goal: the continuity of farming. We are convinced that we can help create a fnancially secure sector. One that offers opportunities for the long-term and will continue to serve society for generations to come in a sustainable way. As a leading player in the animal feed industry, not only do we have the opportunity to play a key role in improving the efciency and therefore sustainability of livestock production, we have a duty to do so. Working side-byside with farmers and veterinarians we deliver real benefts: better returns, healthier livestock and greater efciency.
