Time to Take Control: Ruminant Event 
Productivity, Profitability & Emissions Reduction
A changing feed industry
As pressure increases across the supply chain - from market demands to on‑farm performance - clear, practical solutions matter more than ever. That's we we are hosting a one‑day event exploring how technical innovation, collaboration and practical nutrition can support better decision‑making, drive efficiency and build long‑term resilience in ruminant systems.
Get to know our speakers
Our programme features a strong mix of industry voices representing every stage of the supply chain - retailers, processors, feed industry specialists and farmers.
With contributions from Morrisons, Arla, GLW Feeds and Trouw Nutrition, the programme combines strategic sustainability insight with practical, on farm application.
