Commissioner for Health and Consumer Protection, and Osler Desouzart, Brazilian
economist, contributing his expertise and ideas for green solutions to feed,
food and fuel quandaries. The speakers will each share their views on these
issues from their perspective and experience in their corner of the
world.

“It’s a testament to the scope and magnitude of Alltech’s
Symposium that we are able to attract someone like Secretary Johanns to speak
and share his knowledge with delegates from various aspects of our industry,”
said Dr. Pearse Lyons, president and founder of Alltech. “Having world-renowned
experts like Mike Johanns, David Byrne and Osler Desouzart sharing the stage to
address the industry is a unique opportunity and it’s one that we’re proud to
offer.”

childhood, spent on a dairy farm. Prior to his tenure with the USDA, he served
as governor of Nebraska. He also gained first hand experience in international
trade through his participation in World Trade Organization negotiations and
promotion of the US-Dominican Republic-Central America Free Trade
Agreement.

Alltech’s Symposium will be inciting delegates – including
experts from around the globe – to redefine the industry as a leader of the
‘Greenest Generation’ by rethinking technology and business practices.The
Symposium will also urge delegates to find constructive ways in which we, the
agriculture industry, can respond to the green
revolution.
