The feed sector plays a key role within the animal sectors, for both animal livestock and pets. Healthy, safe and high quality feed is essential for healthy animals and the production of tasty and safe animal products such as milk, eggs and meat.
The quality of feed is partly safeguarded by good knowledge concerning the whole production process: what is the effect of resource treatments on the quality of feed? Process technology is the central topic. Participants will gain insight into the production process of feed manufacturers. Furthermore, attention will be paid to the use of various resources, quality control, trends and new developments in the feed sector.
Target group
Nutritionists, advisors, account managers, policy makers and other interested personnel working in the feed industry.
