The presentations listed below are the unreviewed, unedited papers and PowerPoint presentations submitted at the 2001 International Animal Agriculture and Food Science Conference. Some of the speakers have also chosen to submit these same materials to various journals for eventual publication after peer review and technical editing. However, this site serves simply as a warehouse of raw data from the meeting held in Indianapolis.
