STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. — Food security is a big issue on World Poultry Day (today, May 10) as pork production continues to fall due to African swine fever in pigs in China while poultry is expected to fill the gap in world protein supplies.
As poultry becomes the world’s most-consumed meat protein in 2019, the International Poultry Council (IPC) is calling on producers worldwide to use World Poultry Day to engage consumers and critics about poultry’s role in food security and sustainability.
