Global inspiration, local practice is the leitmotif of this edition of VIV Europe, which is the global exhibition and conference program of the animal protein sector for the production and processing of poultry meat, eggs, red meat, fish and dairy.
“A truly inspirational area located at the show entrance will welcome you onsite with more than 35 innovative agri-food concepts waiting to be discovered and replicated in the world,” announced Renate Wiendels, senior project manager of VNU Europe, the organizer of VIV Europe. The show serves as the optimal platform for global supply chains while promoting the importance of bringing back farmers to a more central role.
Innovative services and technologies leading farmers into the future
Twenty innovations will be highlighted in hall 9, while many other exhibitors will be disclosing numerous cutting-edge products and services at their booths all around the showground.
This edition presents innovative services and technologies specifically enabling farmers and breeders to improve production, with a focus on the poultry and egg sector. From gender-specific broiler breeder watering systems to automatic farm data collection and precision poultry farming, new pathogen control feed materials, effective lighting recipes systems, and the latest feed ingredients to optimize feed digestibility – these and many more newly released products can ease your struggles with day-to-day operational challenges.
Six halls packed with solutions for your animal production
The VIV Europe exhibitors, from 50+ countries, are ready to showcase 52,000 square meters of space packed with solutions for animal husbandry in halls 7 to 12 at the Jaarbeurs, Utrecht, the venue of the show in the Netherlands. The chance to meet suppliers and reconnect with business partners face-to-face is finally coming for all industry players. As always, the show covers the complete feed to food supply chain, including feed ingredients and additives; animal health and pharmaceuticals; breeding and hatching; farm production; slaughtering and processing for meat, eggs, dairy and fish. Your ticket for VIV Europe will also give you free access to the co-located VICTAM International show, presented in halls 1 and 2, right across the aisle, and dedicated to feed technology and feed production.
Feed strategies, sustainable animal production, trends and inspiring food concepts
Next to the exhibition booths, the VIV Europe conference and seminar program along with its top-notch line-up of speakers provides an unparalleled source of professional knowledge as well as a great networking opportunity for all visitors joining onsite. All conferences and seminars are held either in the modern rooms on the first floor of Jaarbeurs venue, right above the expo halls, or at the cozy Arena by the show entrance.
The 2022 European Feed Congress – Strategies for future-proof food production – explores how the European animal feed industry and its feed additive suppliers strengthen Europe’s global competitiveness.
Other sessions provide content on all sorts of topics, such as insects as feed, dairy farming, food waste management, contamination prevention in feed supply, automation for fresh poultry packaging, feed extrusion technology for aquaculture, in-ovo sexing, pig gut health, poultry health and nutrition, feed efficiency, and much more.
Safety onsite and travel tips
“Jaarbeurs organizes trade shows, conventions and other events in accordance with the strictest possible safety standards. We are ready to welcome once again the world to the Netherlands for this exciting event, the mother-show of all VIV events worldwide,” said Heiko M. Stutzinger, Jaarbeurs COO. At VIV Europe, you will not only find disinfection columns to sanitize your hands but also regular surface cleaning and hall ventilation are guaranteed onsite.
When planning your travel, please note that both Utrecht and Amsterdam are good options for your stay: check both cities to find the accommodation price range of your preference. Daily transportation is very convenient by train from Amsterdam to Utrecht Central Station, which is only a two-minute walk from the venue. While a two-day visit is highly suggested given the rich exhibition program, a one-day trip can also be arranged from most European cities thanks to the easy connection of the show from Schiphol Airport.
The show will take place from May 31 to 2 June in Utrecht, the Netherlands. More information here.
