Giles, whose background is in the peanut industry, joined the Federation in 2009. He traces the almost lockstep development of ATRP with the Georgia Poultry Federation, which began in 1951. Together, the two entities have had a profound impact on the Five P’s of Georgia Agriculture: peaches, peanuts, pecans, pine, and, of course, poultry.
