Ausgabe zur EUROTIER • ENERGY DECENTRAL 2018

5 Ausg.Nr._24/2018 EuroTier + EnergyDecentral 2018 E uroTier is the world’s leading trade fair for ani- mal production. This year more than 2,500 exhibitors from 62 countries will be presenting their new and further develop- ments at the Hanover Exhibi- tion Grounds, showing modern animal husbandry in all its fac- ets. An increasingly digitally networked world offers new op- portunities for successfully com- bining productivity and animal welfare, as well as sustainable handling of natural resources. To achieve this, farmers need good, usable know-how and effi- ciently networked technologies. This year’s EuroTier, under the guiding theme “Digital Animal Farming” will be showing the latest developments in animal husbandry. Special “Digital Animal Farming” The cross-species special fea- ture, “Digital Animal Farming”, deals with the topic of digitizing production processes in animal housing and on the farm. Whether in the fields of production moni- toring, animal health and animal welfare, the farm nutrient bal- ance, or transparency vis-à-vis customers, through the use of sensors and targeted data man- agement it is now possible to give equal consideration to the needs of the animals, the environment, farmers and consumers. Network- ing of systems and technologies on the farm can simplify manage- ment and help to avoid errors. On a dedicated area in Hall 26, the DLG (German Agricultural Soci- ety) together with EuroTier exhibi- tors and consultancy institutions will be presenting relevant exhib- its and providing explanations relating to cattle, pig and poultry farming in the digital age, and will communicate this fascinating theme to visitors via short pres- entations and lectures, as well as panel discussions. EnergyDecentral and BIOGAS Convention At EnergyDecentral, the interna- tional trade fair for innovative energy supply, 284 specialized exhibitors, as well as over 250 further exhibitors, whose prod- uct ranges are of interest to both livestock farmers and bioenergy specialists, will be presenting the latest trends and international de- velopments in the energy industry covering aspects of decentralized heat and electricity supplies. The BIOGAS Convention, organized by the German Biogas Associa- tion, is being held in parallel with EnergyDecentral for the second time this year, and this partner- ship creates a unique platform for new trends and innovations in the biogas industry. This year’s Out- door Special at EnergyDecentral will focus on the topic of “Biogenic solid fuels – wood and stalk-type biomass” – How can wood chips and pellets satisfy the energy de- mand in agribusiness? How can unused potentials from straw be used to produce energy? A series of live presentations will highlight these and other questions. bpt Congress to coincide with EuroTier again The German Association of Prac- ticing Veterinarians (bpt) will be holding its annual congress, and associated specialist exhibition “Veterinarian Medicine”, to over- lap with EuroTier at the Hanover Exhibition Grounds again this year. This will be held in German. An “International Animal Health Event” on 15 November, organ- ized jointly by DLG, bpt and the University of Veterinary Medicine Hanover, will again serve veteri- narians from all over the world as a meeting place and contact fo- rum, but also as a link between EuroTier and the bpt congress. Furthermore, a new Animal Wel- fare Award will be presented for the first time at this year’s event. Campus & Career – the platform for occupations and careers, science and research One section in Hall 26 will be revolving around career paths, sci- ence and research.
