Founded in 1947, the U.S. Poultry & Egg Association is the largest and most active poultry organization of its kind. Known as the “All-Feather Organization,” the association addresses the changing needs of those involved in producing and processing poultry and eggs.
The U.S. Poultry & Egg Association is dedicated to the growth and development of the poultry industry and represents the entire industry — from the producers of eggs, broilers, and turkeys to the processors of poultry and egg products and the many allied companies serving the industry.
U.S. Poultry & Egg has a long-standing commitment to promoting continuous improvement in environmental management by the poultry industry.
Services Available to Poultry Growers
U.S. Poultry is best known for its annual International Poultry Exposition, held in January in Atlanta, Georgia. The Expo features the world’s largest display of technology, equipment, and supplies used to produce and process poultry and egg products.
Continuing education is a high priority. The association’s seminar program has expanded into a comprehensive schedule of educational and training programs to keep the poultry industry informed.
U.S. Poultry and Egg’s proactive approach to government relations keeps Congress and federal agencies aware of the industry requirements and consequences of actions, and members informed of developments that affect the industry.
The association’s research program returns millions of dollars to the industry. Research grants are used to find better ways of producing poultry and egg products. Members are kept aware of industry developments through the distribution of newsletters, reports, and memos.
