Description
Animal rights extremism is on the rise, making security a growing priority across the animal agriculture and food communities. America’s farms, ranches, food processors, retailers, and restaurants play a critical role in keeping the food supply safe and accessible. In this session, Hannah Thompson-Weeman, president and CEO of the Animal Agriculture Alliance, will share insights on emerging activism trends and outline practical strategies to help safeguard your operation, protect animal welfare, and strengthen the resilience of the food supply chain.
