USPOULTRY Foundation Sponsors National FFA Officer Candidates to 2025 IPPE
National FFA Officer Candidates will be attending the International Poultry Expo (IPE), part of the 2025 International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE), as a result of the USPOULTRY Foundation’s ongoing initiative to further attract the best and brightest students to the poultry and egg industries. The students will receive an all-expense paid trip to IPE in Atlanta, Georgia.
The National Officer Candidates are leaders who excel in FFA and already have demonstrated an affinity for agriculture and food production. These college students are eligible to participate in the USPOULTRY Foundation’s College Student Career Program. Through the interview process, they have an opportunity to access potential internships and receive insights from industry leaders.
Attending IPPE is also an opportunity for the National Officer Candidates to see all that the poultry and egg industry has to offer. This includes the vast trade show floor and the exciting technology used by today’s modern, sustainable poultry industry. They also have an opportunity to further develop their skills and knowledge by attending IPPE education programs during Expo week.
“The USPOULTRY Foundation understands that bringing in the brightest students from all corners of the nation to become the next generation of managers, leaders and innovators will significantly shape the future of the industry. Supporting initiatives like the National FFA to provide these future leaders with opportunities, such as attending IPPE, plays a crucial role in achieving this goal,” remarked Nath Morris, president of USPOULTRY.
