– Veterinary matters
– Feed matters
– Training and technology transfer
– Statistics
– Congresses, exhibitions and workshops

– Target group liason
– Individual committees attend to sub-sector specifics
– Codes of practice
– Accreditation of hatcheries
– Monitoring of developments in the industry’s environment
Our vision is to create a viable and sustainable industry contributing to economic growth.
SAPA is indeed a medium and catalyst for any matter the industry wishes to collectively address.
