Business Wire
Piper Jaffray (NYSE: PJC), a leading investment bank and asset
management firm, is scheduled to host its inaugural Agriculture
& Animal Health Investor Day on Tuesday, August 5, 2014.
The Upper Midwest is a major hub for new agricultural
technologies that help growers drive yields and the event will be
taking place in Minneapolis at the Piper Jaffray headquarters
office. Piper Jaffray has an extensive history covering the
agricultural industry, uniquely approaching opportunities across
the full value chain from field to market.
“As farmers continue to pursue higher crop yields and the demand
for food pushes farming into more challenging growing conditions
around the world, new technologies are emerging to tackle these
issues,” said Michael Cox, head of equity research
for Piper Jaffray. “Presenting companies and guest speakers at
the Piper Jaffray Agriculture & Animal Health investor
conference will highlight these innovations, along with key
industry trends in farm machinery, grain handling &
infrastructure, and biofuels.”
The event will expose investors to executive teams from some of
the nation’s leading agriculture, capital equipment and animal
health companies. Public and private companies, as well as industry
thought leaders and farmers will discuss key industry trends and
the state of the agriculture economy. Key trends in animal health
will be presented including new product development, as well as a
look into the state of the livestock and dairy markets.
