The Institute for Feed Education and Research (IFEEDER), in collaboration with Iowa State University (ISU), has launched an initiative to underscore the critical importance of sustainability in the animal food industry. This effort has culminated in a comprehensive “Animal Food Industry Sustainability Toolkit,” which highlights three key sustainability pillars: People, Planet, and Governance. The toolkit includes real-life examples from various companies, demonstrating the value, action, and benefits of their sustainability commitments.
