ARLINGTON, Va. — The U.S. feed industry logged 46,500 hours of community service in 2013, almost double the hours compared to 2012, according to an annual informal survey conducted by the American Feed Industry Association. The survey also concluded the industry donated close to $3 million to local charities last year.
The "AFIA Sustainability Initiative Survey" gathers information from AFIA members who donated funding and volunteer hours as an effort to support sustainability within their communities. The term "sustainability" is defined by the feed industry as: The ability to provide a continuous, safe and nutritious feed supply for poultry. . .
