Our Animal Nutrition Summit provides an avenue for us to connect farmers, producers, customers and consumers, and partner with them to build and advance the growth ambitions of the Filipino hog industry,” shared Sonny Catacutan, Country President of Cargill Philippines and Managing Director for Cargill’s animal nutrition business.

With the theme “Feeding the Future,” the summit will open and connect discussions on the local swine market and feature a lineup of speakers who will cover topics highlighting the importance of an integrated approach to addressing the industry’s current biggest challenge, the African Swine Fever (ASF), and strengthening ASF recovery efforts.

The Animal Nutrition Summit is co-presented by the country’s two major hog farmer organizations, the National Federation of Hog Farmers, Inc.
