The American Feed Industry Association (AFIA) and the Trade Union of Brazilian Animal Feed Industries (Sindiracoes) have signed an agreement of cooperation on several international areas benefiting their respective memberships. The decision allows the two feed organizations to better serve their members on the international front. It will also offer them increased global opportunities.

In signing the agreement, both associations stressed commitment "to provide consistent, safe, and quality feed to further ensure consumer confidence in the crucial roles that they fulfill in modern food production."
