Animal rights and activist groups are increasingly using legislation and litigation to impact how (and if) animals can be raised and processed for food. Oftentimes, these efforts focus on raising the cost for farmers and ranchers to stay in business – and raising costs of animal-based foods in the grocery store.
Three experts with unique perspectives on this issue will share their insights at the Animal Agriculture Alliance’s 2025 Stakeholders Summit, set for April 30-May 2 in Arlington, Va. In this panel discussion, speakers will discuss how farmers and ranchers, industry leaders, and company executives can position themselves for continued success.
- Dayna Ghirardelli, Executive Director, Sonoma County Farm Bureau, will explain how her organization helped counter a ballot measure to end large-scale farming in the county.
- Ryann Glenn, Partner, Husch Blackwell, will share how attendees can ensure their sustainability narratives withstand legal scrutiny and avoid “greenwashing” accusations.
- Mike Bober, President and CEO, Pet Advocacy Network, will explore challenges and opportunities for animal agriculture under the new administration, offering strategies for navigating change and uncertainty.
