Latin American feed makers unite

24-03-2008 | |

The office of the Brazilian Feed Industry Association Sindracoes is now also home base for the newly formed Latin American feed industry association – Feed Latina.

Feed Latina operates as a regional feed association that encompasses the
entire Latina American continent and the Caribbean.

President of the new
association has been elected Mario Sergio Cutait, who also is president of
Sindracoes.

He will be assisted by Antonio Pedroza of the Animal
Nutrition and Feed Industry Council of Mexico (CONAFAB), who has been elected as
vice president for the Mexican and Caribbean region.

Dr Fernando Eluchans
of the Chamber of Animal Nutrition Industry Argentina (CAENA) was elected vice
president for the South American region and Dr Ariovaldo Zanni, CEO of
Sindracoes, was appointed Feed Latina’s first
director-treasurer.

Better communication
One of the
first actions will be to develop a professional and scientific base for the
region including a communication network that will allow Feed Latina to address
the technical and regulatory demands that face the region.

Big advantage
of Feed Latina will be in communication. Other feed groups such as the European
Fefac, US AFIA and Chinese CFIA will be able to reach the Latin American region
via one association. It saves the strenuous job of travelling and communicating
with each country separately.
