OABA FEED COMMITTEE SEEKS YOUR INPUT

If you are involved in feed manufacturing please reply to survey

The OABA Feed Committee believes there is a need for well-rounded, educated individuals to fill complex positions in the feed manufacturing industry. This belief is based on an aging workforce, along with advancements in feed manufacturing technology. We are aware of only two institutions nationwide, North Carolina State University and Kansas State University, offering programs specific to the feed manufacturing industry.

Recently, the OABA Feed Committee met with Dr. Bobby Moser, V.P. and Dean of the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, The Ohio State University to discuss how OSU might play a role in addressing our concern. Dr. Moser has expressed interest, most likely at the Agricultural Technical Institute, Wooster, Ohio in developing a program to fulfill the need for individuals desiring a professional career path in the feed manufacturing industry.

The purpose of this survey is to identify the industry need for educated employees in the feed manufacturing industry over the next 4-5 years and beyond.

If you received a survey, please take a few minutes to respond, or pass it on to someone who can.
