The tenth Stakeholders Summit of the Animal Agriculture Alliance is underway in Arlington, VA. The Executive Vice President is Kay Johnson Smith who welcomed us just a little while ago.

I spoke with Kay before we got started to learn more about what the Alliance does and get a preview of the program here. She says the AAA is a national umbrella organization that works to connect all stakeholders across the animal agriculture food chain to educate the public and media about the importance of the industry and to protect our ability to raise food in the United States. The Stakeholders Summit provides an opportunity to bring everyone together to make connections and listen to educational presentations. I’ll be conducting interviews with many of them, including farmer participants which will be posted during the next several days.
