Cornell Nutrition Conference

Cornell Nutrition Conference
82nd Annual Cornell Nutrition Conference for Feed Manufacturers
Now Virtual!
October 19 - 22, 2020
10:00AM - 2:00PM EDT Daily via Zoom

For 82 years, the Cornell Nutrition Conference has provided industry leading research and information across the spectrum of animal nutrition to feed industry professionals and nutritional consultants.

Status Update
Due to the ongoing uncertainty related to the Coronavirus pandemic and anticipated strict limitations on an in-person experience, this year's conference will be offered as a 100% virtual event. While it is hard to imagine not gathering in Syracuse this year, we feel this will provide the best experience while ensuring the safety for our attendees, our speakers, and our sponsors.

We are excited to offer this event virtually on October 19 - 22 from 10:00AM - 2:00PM EDT daily via Zoom. A robust agenda of industry leading research and information across the spectrum of animal nutrition will be presented by industry-leading academics and researchers. Join nearly 500 nutrition consultants, feed manufacturers, sales professionals, and university professionals at this premier industry event!

A complete agenda and online registration will be available in mid-August.

Sponsors are an integral part of this event, enabling us to provide high quality educational programming from leading scientists. This year's event offers tiered contribution levels and expanded recognition through the conference website, mobile app and during the live virtual event.

Future Event Sponsorship opportunities are available for the 2022 conference and beyond.

2025 Cornell Food Beverage & Animal Feed Manufacturer Survey

December 19, 2025

Industry and Educational Advocates for New York State's Food, Beverage, and Animal Feed Manufacturing industries:

As you know, NYS has a diverse food and beverage manufacturing industry, in both the types of industries that exist and the wide distribution of firms by scale. Many manufacturing firms have strong backward linkages to agricultural production sectors in the state that support both farm-level and downstream food industry firms and consumers. In collaboration with the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets, a team from Cornell University's Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management has recently rolled out the 2025 New York State Food, Beverage, and Animal Feed Manufacturer Survey. The industry will benefit from an updated assessment of the industry that informs private and public investments and opportunities to support firm growth and improved profitability.
