EuroTier 2012 set to be bigger and better

 

EuroTier is the global innovations showcase for machinery, equipment and installations, and farm inputs for professional animal husbandry. For many years now companies have been gearing their innovation cycles to EuroTier in Hanover, where they launch their new products for the international markets. On the basis of strict criteria, a neutral and international commission of experts appointed by DLG will select ‘EuroTier innovations’ from among the submissions by the exhibitors and award the best.

Top cattle genetics

The key prerequisites for viable dairy farming include robust cows with a long life. Consequently the importance of cattle genetics is growing. This year EuroTier will once again provide a unique overview of top cattle genetics in Europe.

Leading German and international breeding organisations and companies will be presenting their daughter animals. They use this platform to present their prime genetics to a top-flight international expert public.

The cattle genetics show will be one of the major attractions for cattle farmers and will feature daily presentations.

Aquaculture at EuroTier 2012

Aquaculture is an integral part of EuroTier. Leading companies in the industry, including providers of modern fish farm technology, installations and equipment for keeping, ventilating and feeding, nets and innovative processing, improvement and water conditioning systems will be presenting their latest developments.

DLG will again set up an Aquaculture Forum and Advisory Centre to cater to the strong demand for information in this special sector. Lectures with a practical content, discussions and comprehensive advisory services will round off the offerings of the exhibitors.

Special Feed Gallery

For the first time visitors to EuroTier 2012 will be able to see the variety and broad base of the raw materials (feed materials) for animal husbandry in a special ‘Feed Gallery’.
The most important of the 600 feed materials listed in the EU feed law and the German positive list will be presented in the gallery and portrayed as regards to their quality and origin.
In addition, selected current questions concerning feed supply, feed quality and quality assurance as well as ecological impacts, related to various feed categories, will be examined in depth.
