Although the feed industry is dealing with problems such as African Swine Fever (ASF) and geopolitical unrest, such as the ongoing trade war between the USA and China, the mood at the show was upbeat and positive, which reflects increasing investment in the industry and impressive advancements.
In his opening remarks, Sebas van Ende, General Manager of VICTAM International, noted that the need for food safety, sustainability and traceability has clearly been recognised by the industry which is responding with new practices and innovative technology to address these issues.
