The DLG (German Agricultural Society), organizer of EuroTier China, which takes place 7-9 September 2020 in Chengdu in China, today unveiled the technical program for the EuroTier China 2020 international trade fair for animal farming professionals. In addition, a series of webinars that will include international livestock speakers will be offered by the organisers ahead of the event with the full technical program taking place at the exhibition itself. The topics include food safety, antibiotic-free feed and the use of Chinese medicine for livestock.
Keen to gather knowledge that will improve their animal production skills, EuroTier China attendees will benefit from the expanded technical program at EuroTier China from May through to September. EuroTier China is focused on presenting to Chinese farming experts, not only livestock technologies but also applicable technical knowledge in the dairy, cattle, pig and poultry sectors as well non-traditional livestock segments such as goose meat production.

“I am pleased with the launch of our online webinar series accompanying the technical program at EuroTier China 2020 because they come at a time of two major challenges facing farmers, which are African swine fever (ASF) and of course the Covid-19 pandemic. Knowledge sharing is crucial in order to identify solutions for now and for the future,” said Sven Häuser, Project Lead, Knowledge Center for Animal Husbandry at DLG.
“The ‘1st Sino-European Pig Summit Webinar' was concluded last week with over 150 participants from 26 countries including USA, Germany, Netherlands, France, Spain, Russia, Brazil, Canada, Thailand, Japan, Vietnam. I am very pleased as it bore testimony to the strength and cohesiveness of the global animal farming industry” added Häuser.

EuroTier China is organized in collaboration with the National Animal Husbandry Services (NAHS) China and Beijing Tech, subsidiary organizations of the Ministry of Agriculture, People's Republic of China.

“Our motto at EuroTier China is ‘One Brand All Segments'.

This year in addition to covering the traditional segments such as poultry pork, dairy, feed and cattle, we are providing the industry with technical content and knowhow on a number of up and coming sectors such as the application of chinese medicine in antibiotics-free animal feed and goose meat production,” commented Ms. Leely Zhang, Managing Director at DLG AgroTech Services, the subsidiary company responsible for the exhibition in China.
