An elaborate conference & technical seminar program is being organized alongside the exhibition halls. A wide range of topics will be discussed including feed milling and formulation, feed safety, aquafeed, petfood, grain and rice milling, high-tech animal health technology, genetics, pharmaceutical solutions for Asia, veterinary equipment, feed additives, bio-energy & biomass pelleting technology and much more.
