Following this morning’s opening general session at the Alltech Symposium, (l-r) Dr. Mark Lyons, Dr. Pearse Lyons and Lopez Lomong participated in a press conference. This provide media a chance to ask them quite a few questions. I’m sharing one Q&A with each of them for you.

First up I have Lopez Lomong. I asked him his thoughts on the growing interest and activity on the part of U.S. business to invest in Africa, especially in the agricultural sector.

Next up is Dr. Pearse Lyons who was asked to expand on his earlier remarks about the Alltech initiative in Eastern Kentucky.

And next is Dr. Mark Lyons. He was asked how the technologies presented today will be used to increase animal livestock and protein production.
