International poultry economist Dr. Paul Aho is scheduled to speak at the National Chicken Council’s Annual Conference scheduled October 29-30 at the Four Seasons Hotel in Washington, D.C.

Dr. Aho has a B.S. in Agricultural Economics from Cornell University, an M.S. in International Agribusiness from Arizona State University, and a Ph.D. in Poultry Economics from Michigan State University. His work experience spans 30 years and included academic positions in Poultry Departments at Cornell University and University of Georgia and agribusiness experience in two poultry breeding companies.

Dr. Aho also operates his own consulting company called Poultry Perspective.  In that role, he works around the world with poultry managers and government policy makers. At NCC’s conference, Dr. Aho will discuss U.S. broiler production, per capita consumption of poultry as well as corn and soybean prices and supply and demand.  He will also speak about China’s major decline in pork production due to African Swine Fever and how pork supply might impact chicken demand.
