Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

RESEARCH: THE INSTITUTE BELIEVES THAT GOVERNMENT REGULATORY AND LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS MUST BE SCIENCE-BASED, AND THAT THE INSTITUTE MUST MAINTAIN A LIQUID ASSET FUND TO CHALLENGE QUESTIONABLE OR "DIRECTED" SCIENCE THAT SEEKS TO BE A MEANS TO AN END IN OVER-REGULATING THE FEED INDUSTRY OR LACKING JUSTIFICATION BASED ON REAL SCIENCE AND ITS MEANINGS. SECOND, THE INSTITUTE BELIEVES THAT UNDERSTANDING THE POTENTIAL CONTAMINANTS IN FEED ARE PARAMOUNT TO PRODUCING A SAFE FEED AND FOOD SUPPLY FROM MEAT, MILK, EGGS, AND FISH. ALSO, THE INSTITUTE BELIEVES THAT THE NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL HAS A RICH HISTORY OF ASSISTING THE FEED INDUSTRY SINCE 1928 BY ASSEMBLING WORLD CLASS SCIENTISTS TO REVIEW RESEARCH AND DEVELOP CUTTING EDGE NUTRIENT REQUIREMENTS FOR ANIMAL PRODUCTION CLASSES. ADDITIONALLY, THE INSTITUTE BELIEVES THE IMPACT OF THE FEED INDUSTRY AND ITS CARBON FOOTPRINT ARE PART OF THE LARGER FOOTPRINT OF ANIMAL AGRICULTURE. CONSUMERS, CUSTOMERS, AND OTHERS WISH THIS TO BE DEFINED AND PROJECTS TO ASSIST IN THE OVERVIEW OF THE INDUSTRY'S SUBSTAINABILITY INDEX ARE NECESSARY TO ANSWER CONSUMERS AND CUSTOMERS' QUESTIONS.
