Professional Relations Committee Report
Paul Beck, Southern Director
ARPAS has a long and successful history of building relationships among animal scientists in academia and industry. A not insignificant part of the support for ARPAS is from gifts from our corporate sponsors, and we thank those companies that are currently supporting our mission of promoting excellence and ethics in professional animal scientists.
This year’s donors are as follows:
Platinum ($2,500 per year)
Arm & Hammer
Diamond V
Zinpro
Gold ($1,500 per year)
Biozyme Inc.
DuPont-Pioneer
Provimi
Silver ($1,000 per year)
Feedstuff
Bronze ($500 per year)
Alfagreen Supreme
Lallemand
Purina
Micronutrients
Quality Liquid Feeds
We also thank organizations and companies that sponsor our ARPAS-sponsored symposia held at regional and national meetings, including the Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation, Elanco Animal Health, Barenbrug Inc., Vigortone, and Micronutrients. If you represent or know someone from a company that would be interested in helping to sponsor the ARPAS symposium at the national ASAS–ADSA meeting, contact us. We can use your support in many different ways!
Also deserving recognition are the members of the Professional Relations Committee consisting of Matt Cravey, Troy Wistuba, Glenn Duff, Bret Hess, Phillip Lancaster, and Daniel Rivera. I am extremely appreciative of these ARPAS members’ willingness to serve and work for our society.
