Our Values

  • Community

    A Kathmandu workshop room with feed formulators from four countries at once — Nepal included, not singled out.

  • Curiosity

    Poultry nutrition research exists because 'good enough feed' wasn't the standard USSEC was chasing.

  • Partnership

    Nepal's soybean meal import market reopened through USSEC's Global Trade Exchange connections, not by Nepal negotiating alone.

  • Global Vision

    One trade association speaking for an entire country's soy supply chain, from the farm to the shipper to whichever country needs the feed.
