There are clear signs of exceptionally high exhibitor participation from home and abroad in the world’s top event for animal husbandry, EuroTier, to be held in Hanover from 13 to 16 November 2012. According to the information supplied by the organizer DLG (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft – German Agricultural Society), stand bookings by more than 1,400 companies to date indicate that well over 2,000 exhibitors can be expected at the event in November. All the world’s leading suppliers of machinery and equipment for modern animal husbandry will be presenting innovative solutions and comprehensive information about innovations and trends at the Exhibition Grounds in Hanover. EuroTier Project Manager Dr. Schlösser says that the stand booking results so far are even now a clear indication of EuroTier’s outstanding position as leading international exhibition for modern animal husbandry. This is already confirmed by the fact that 200 first-time exhibitors will be coming. At the last event in 2010, EuroTier with more than 1,900 exhibitors from 49 countries supplied information to over 145,000 expert visitors, including 24,000 international visitors.
According to the information supplied by the EuroTier Project Manager, all areas of the exhibition are displaying growth by comparison with previous years, as is reflected by the complete programme in both the pig and cattle sectors and in the poultry sector with the “World Poultry Show”. Exceedingly high exhibitor interest has also been recorded for “BioEnergy Decentral”.
“World Poultry Show” the highlight of the global poultry industry
Participation from the poultry industry sector will be unique at EuroTier 2012 and cover the entire industry with its brand leaders from the fields of breeding, husbandry and processing. This will make the “World Poultry Show” the highlight of the entire international poultry industry this year. Further drawing power for visitors from the poultry sector is exerted by the cross-species exhibition areas such as feed and feed storage, animal health or climate control technology in animal housing that are not presented as comprehensively at any other exhibition.
“BioEnergy Decentral” arouses great interest once again
“BioEnergy Decentral”, the global forum for decentralized energy supply, is also encountering a high level of exhibitor interest. Large numbers of well-known companies from home and abroad have already booked stands and will be presenting a comprehensive programme covering the whole range of technological developments in the fields of bioenergy (biogas, solid biofuels such as wood, energy grain and liquid biofuels) as well as renewable energy. “BioEnergy Decentral”, being organized in close cooperation with VDMA Power Systems and the Association of Local Utilities (VKU) addresses both producers of bioenergy with their agricultural, municipal, commercial and industrial users and operators of decentralized energy supply systems.
This year too bpt Congress with “Veterinarian Medicine” Exhibition
The Federal Association of Practising Veterinarians (Bundesverband Praktizierender Tierärzte -bpt) is now scheduling its annual congress and associated specialist exhibition “Veterinarian Medicine” to overlap with EuroTier at the Exhibition Grounds in Hanover for the third time. The record participation by veterinarians at both the bpt Congress and EuroTier at the last event in 2010 made the synergies eminently clear. Both events with their specific information programmes are indispensable for veterinarians and can now be reached in just one trip.
Future forum for all aspects of professional animal husbandry
EuroTier is the most important future forum addressing all aspects of professional animal husbandry. Traditionally this is where both technology trends are pointed up and all important questions of modern animal husbandry and animal breeding are addressed. Together with partners from business, academia, advisory services, trade associations and organizations, this year too DLG will be presenting a comprehensive technical programme complementing the programmes of the exhibitors. This includes international conferences and events, as well as animal species-specific forum events on current trends and important developments in the industries.
