The Feed Industry Practitioners Association of Nigeria (FIPAN) has elected Dr. Ayoola Oduntan as its new President. Dr. Oduntan, a seasoned expert in the agricultural sector, is well-positioned to lead FIPAN in driving the development and sustainability of Nigeria’s feed industry.
As the Group Managing Director of Amo Farm Sieberer Hatchery Limited and other companies, Dr. Oduntan brings a wealth of experience to his new role. He has previously served as the National President of the Poultry Association of Nigeria (PAN) and is committed to improving the country’s agricultural landscape.
Dr. Oduntan has pledged to address the industry’s most pressing challenges, including raw material sourcing, regulatory alignment, and professional capacity building. He aims to forge strategic alliances with key agricultural associations and commodity groups to enhance stakeholder networks, streamline supply chains, and improve access to essential raw materials.
FIPAN represents a broad spectrum of stakeholders in the animal feed industry and generates an estimated $2 to $3 billion annually. The association is committed to advancing the sector through advocacy, setting industry standards, and providing member support.
Dr. Oduntan succeeds the outgoing President, Mr. Raymond Isiadinso, and aims to build upon his achievements while addressing current challenges. FIPAN is confident that under Dr. Oduntan’s leadership, the association will continue to serve as a unifying force for the feed industry, enhancing production quality, securing supply chains, and fostering sustainable practices that benefit the entire agricultural value chain.
