Everyone will come away with the opinion that Meat Pro Asia is a useful addition to the South East Asian trade good timeline.
A world feed and food method reimagined.
VIV Asia serves as the primary venue for industry officials to present their most recent advances. The innovations from this year covered a wide range of topics, including safe and effective farming technology tools, creative health and health products, and powerful chicken house control systems. Other noteworthy innovation-related events included a regional seminar on Good Farming led by the Federation of Asian Veterinary Association and a Tony Hunter of Future Cubed seminar on new technologies for a more equitable and sustainable global food system. The food system needs to be rethought using the new technology,”. Since the industry is engaged in the supply of food, it needs to consider this problem. This new and crucial topic has been gaining new information, and VIV Asia and Meat Pro Asia are a really great resource for this. I am very impressed with the show”, commented Hunter.
Knowledge-stacked programs were a major highlight at the event. With more than 120 sessions spread over four days, attendees could gain an all-round understanding on industry insights, technologies and best practices. A variety of industry experts gave captivating presentations on the most recent developments in fish and shrimp nutrition at the Aquatic Asia Conference held the day before the show. The Asian Inspiration panel discussion on the first episode of the show featured key speakers who discussed the most recent developments in local and sustainable farming based on the Netherlands model. The majority of the sessions were fully booked, with few opportunities for walk-ins to book them, which demonstrated how crucial it is for the sessions presented at VIV Asia to an audience that is interested in learning and staying current with industry trends.
Looking ahead, VIV Asia will return 12-14 March, 2025, carrying on the tradition of providing a premier platform for the animal protein industry to connect, learn, and innovate. With a strong commitment to delivering a top-notch trade show and knowledge programs, VIV Asia will undoubtedly be another landmark event in the VIV series of events around the world.
