Our Mission

FASS specializes in providing services to science-focused organizations, allowing them to function more efficiently as a group than as individual units. FASS promotes education and research by bringing together scientists and educators in animal agriculture and facilitating the dissemination of scientific and technical information to users through publications and scientific meetings. Through the FASS Science Policy Committee (SPC), FASS advocates for science-based policy making, increased funding for animal agriculture research, and the importance of animal science and animal scientists in ensuring humane, sustainable, profitable and safe animal food production.
