Time running out to enter our feed industry survey

21-Sep-2016 - Last updated on 22-Sep-2016 at 15:18 GMT

Have you completed our survey yet that aims to get a snapshot of the hopes and fears of the international feed sector for 2016 and beyond?

If not, please do so without haste. The more responses we get, the more comprehensive the FeedNavigator State of the Feed Industry 2016 report will be.

We are aiming to gauge the opportunities and obstacles for growth worldwide.

We want to see how switched on feed manufacturers are in relation to environmental management and animal welfare.

We are looking to see if security of supply and price stability trump sustainability when it comes to raw material sourcing.

And we want to check in with you as to whether new regulations such as those under the FSMA animal food rule in the US are proving burdensome and costly.

We also would like to know if there is an ongoing concern over a lack of skilled entrants coming into the sector - that recruitment challenge was raised as a barrier to growth in last year’s survey.

And we want to see if feed companies are on the asset trail this year or if they are holding back from expansion due to external factors such as the fallout from the Brexit vote, for example.

Let your voice be heard

The survey is both quantitative and qualitative in format.

The platform allows you, the feed manufacturer, to sound off on any challenges you believe your business and the industry as a whole faces or on the myriad of developments, either political or legislative, that have had the most impact on your company in the past 12 months.

We want to get to the heart of the issues. Get clicking, let us know.
