Last Call for Lamb Summit Registration
With the American Lamb Summit just a month away, and only a few seats remaining, anyone wanting to attend should register in the next few days. Complete information is available at LambSummit.com.
The Lamb Summit begins Monday, Aug. 8, in East Lansing, MI. Sessions focus on industry challenges and opportunities, competitor analysis, eating quality of lamb (including a taste panel), carcass quality evaluation and yield cutting demos, and accelerated lambing.
Aug. 9 sessions will feature hands-on learning about meat and muscle biology, genetics and meat quality, ultrasounding to determine meat quality, feed composition’s influence on carcass composition, industry environmental sustainability, plus insights into the non-traditional and direct-to-consumer markets.
An optional tour on August 10 is of the Metro-Detroit lamb packing plant, retail markets specializing in non-traditional consumers, and a middle eastern restaurant that features lamb. This region is home to the largest Arab-American population in the US, who are important customers for the American Lamb industry. This one-of-a-kind tour is organized by the Michigan Sheep Producers Association.
The 2022 American Lamb Summit, sponsored by Premier 1 Supplies and the American Lamb Board, strives to inspire the next level of change and collaboration among all segments of the US Lamb industry to improve competitiveness, product quality and productivity through increased use of the most efficient, progressive management tools.
