Its aim is to defend the industry\u2019s interests and promote its companies. This is a mainly defensive role, which has constantly evolved towards ever more service to members, a growing involvement in regulatory changes and increased proactivity.<\/p>\n<p>AFCA-CIAL is a player in numerous key issues for the sector, such as the drafting of a code of best practice on nutritional animal supplements, the drafting of a guide to good hygiene practices&#8230; and more recently, historical files have been reactivated, closed or have seen significant milestone crossings: the simplification of VAT rates, the establishment of recommendations for the use of plant products, management of claims. AFCA-CIAL is also involved in issues such as sustainability and animal well-being.<\/p>\n<p>Feed safety, nutrition-health and sustainability are major issues for AFCA-CIAL.<\/p>\n<p>For over 80 years, AFCA-CIAL has supported the development of French livestock industries.<\/p>\n<p>Turned to the future, the association listens to societal concerns to provide healthy food for the population and ensure the sustainability of the livestock industry.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button__secondaryDark\" href=\"https:\/\/afca-cial.fr\/engagements\/\">Discover our
