The American Feed Industry Association (AFIA) is a trade association based in Arlington, Virginia, founded in 1909 that focuses on representing the business, legislative, and regulatory interests of the U.S. animal feed industry and its suppliers. Its membership includes more than 670 domestic and international companies involved in manufacturing commercial and integrated feed, pet food, ingredient supply, pharmaceutical components, and industry support and equipment, collectively producing the majority of the nation’s feed ingredients. AFIA serves as a centralized voice for an industry that supplies a substantial share of non-grain ingredients and a large portion of feed, and it is recognized for leadership on international industry developments through its involvement with global bodies like the International Feed Industry Federation. The association is active in organizing programs and events, such as the annual Liquid Feed Symposium, and has seen leadership changes and strategic hires in recent years to support its policy engagement, communications, and education efforts.
