AFBI builds new research links
The eight person delegation included five members of the Jiangxi Provincial Agricultural Department and three Food Company Executives.
The delegation’s objectives were to learn about the success of AFBI’s research in creating new scientific knowledge that is then used to improve agriculture practices. To help demonstrate how AFBI translates its research findings in a way that can be adopted on local farms, AgriSearch General Manager Jason Rankin joined the meeting to explain its partnership role with AFBI to both fund and support this process. The presentations from the AFBI scientists and the demonstrations of some of the livestock research work at AFBI Hillsborough, developed this concept of advancing animal science to improve farming.
