MPF’s primary purpose is to host an annual convention -- named PEAK -- emphasizing on-farm poultry production. The convention’s goal is to offer cutting-edge information to attendees through a balanced offering of exhibits and educational workshops. The Midwest Poultry Federation (MPF) was founded in 1971 and held its first convention in Minneapolis in 1972. All revenue (after expenses are paid) generated by the PEAK are donated to various poultry organizations for research and educational activities as well as back to MPF’s member organizations: Chicken & Egg Association of Minnesota Iowa Poultry Association Iowa Turkey Federation Illinois Poultry Industries Council Kansas Poultry Association Michigan Allied Poultry Industries Minnesota Turkey Research & Promotion Council Nebraska Egg Council Nebraska Poultry Industries Nebraska Turkey Federation South Dakota Poultry Industries Wisconsin Poultry & Egg Industries Association
