Ing, Saturday, November 12, 1994
WASHINGTON, D.C. The
format for the annual meeting of
Egg Association of America
(EAA) was roundtable discussion,
presentation on a major issue, and
required business.
“That reflects our overall poli
cy of emphasizing business over
politics,” said Mac McLaurin,
EAA president. “We’re interested
in getting issues on the table, get
ting related input from as wide as
scope as feasible, and then finding
the most effective and efficient
solutions.”
During the roundtable discus
sions, participants identified the
most important issues facing their
companies and the whole egg
industry. Topping the list were
some perennial favorites such as
food safety, environment quality,
animal welfare, egg market, bur
densome government regulations,
and egg consumption.
Compared to past meetings,
more emphasis this time was
placed on disposal of spent fowl, a
perception of decreasing USDA
influence (especially related to
food safety), and the negative psy
chology associated with several
market reporting mechanisms.
Some participants took the
time to suggest ways to meet
some of these challenges, such as
acting rather than reacting, adding
value to their product, and taking
advantage of opportunities in egg
products.
The guest speaker, Dr. Joy
Mench, an associate professor and
researcher from the University of
Maryland, spoke on the changing
public attitudes toward animal
welfare. She distinguished protests
by extremists such as PETA from
growing public concern about
how agricultural animals are treat
ed. She pointed out that chief pub
lic concerns today are “beak trim
ming, forced molt, caging (both
stock and design), transport and
slaughter.”
Mench drew an interesting par
allel with evolving attitudes about
use of laboratory animals and
changes in the law related to treat
ment of animals. She applauded
EAA’s efforts to be more proac
tive in this area.
Outgoing chairman Andy
Wadsworth said, "... we need to
spend our time concentrating on
what your needs are going to be ..
in the coming years .... Egg Asso
ciation members have been on the
leading edge in our industry
because we aren’t bound by our
old paradigms (‘we’ve always
done it this way,’ mentality). We
have to look' at new ways of doing
business, develop new attitudes
about who we are in business for
(the customer), and promote our-
EAA Meeting Reflects Philosophy
selves, as well as our products.
The Certified Egg Producer pro
gram is a great start .... I’m as
excited as ever to be a member of
EAA, to be a part of a group of
my peers that loves the egg busi
ness (most of the time), wants to
be successful, and supports the
breakthrough concepts that come
