We safeguard the future of animal agriculture.

Founded in 1987, the Animal Agriculture Alliance is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that brings together farmers, ranchers, veterinarians, animal feed companies, animal health companies, processors, allied associations and others involved in getting food from the farm to our forks!

Registration is now open for the 2026 Stakeholders Summit! This year’s theme, High Steaks: Navigating Pressure on Animal Protein, will bring together hundreds of food chain partners for a rare opportunity to explore hot button issues facing each of us in food and farming.

You’re feeling the heat. We all are. With headlines, regulations, and expectations all bearing down, the stakes for animal agriculture and the food community have never been higher. But this is a rare opportunity. Only at the 2026 Stakeholders Summit will you find the most passionate minds sparking together. It’s the one place where conversation is alight, and ideas sizzle. We know what’s on the line — and we’re fired up to face it. Time to dig in.

Nominate a farmer to earn a free trip

Do you know a farmer or rancher who is truly “steaking their claim” through leadership in sustainability, animal care, or advocacy? We invite you to nominate them for a sponsored trip to attend the 2026 Summit.

Complete our short form by January 30, 2026 and share in a few sentences why your nominee is making a meaningful impact in the ag community. A selected farmer will be chosen to earn a free trip, plus the opportunity to connect with fellow farmers, industry leaders, and food-chain partners during three days of collaboration and conversation focused on safeguarding the future of animal agriculture.
