It will provide an ideal venue for businesses to update the latest trends in the livestock industry, according to the organizing board.
Particularly, there is an area exclusively designed for small and medium-sized enterprises in Vietnam at this year's expo. Enterprises exhibiting in this area are those that have contributed to the livestock industry, and they will get a 30 percent subsidy of space rental costs.
Pham Kim Dang, Deputy Director of the Department of Livestock Production, said that the highlight of this year's event is the Biosecurity Asia Forum, which brings together domestic and international experts who will share knowledge on biosecurity, particularly experiences, and approaches from various countries regarding African swine fever. It is expected to set forth orientations for transforming the livestock industry in the coming time.
Two thematic seminars will also be held within the framework of the event with one on animal feed production - opportunities and challenges for the world and Vietnam, and another on livestock breeding technology.
