IDF
World Dairy Summit 2012
4-8
November - Cape Town
Register

early registration.

"A
World
In One Country"
is the theme for thIs year's IDF World Dairy Summit,
being held in Cape Town from November 4-8, and is a reflection
of the different population groups, landscapes, religions,
cuisines and languages of South Africa - the "Rainbow
Nation".
The South African
dairy industry is one that is shaped by market forces and,
therefore, reacts in a dynamic way thereby stimulating product
innovation and the adoption of more efficient technologies.
Eleven conferences will be held over 4 days and the Summit
programme will include several significant new features: there
will be a conference devoted to dairy in emerging countries,
focusing on the socio-economic benefits of dairying. Benefits
for dairy processors will also not be overlooked and food
security, with the concentration on how the dairy industry
can contribute, will play an important role and animal health
and welfare will also be part of the programme, with a particular
focus on future challenges to control the spread of animal
diseases. A World Dairy Leaders Forum is also scheduled
and this will gave delegates the chance to hear the views
of key players form the world's major companies and raise
issues with them face-to-face.
To find out more about the event,
including the full programme, technical tours, trade exhibition,
accommodation and social tours, please visit the event website

The
2011 World Dairy Summit was held in
Parma, Italy from 15-19 October with the theme
"Sustainable Food Security".
A series of joint
conferences were organised by the IDF with the Food and Agriculture
Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations to examine this subject,
which is of ever-increasing significance to the entire world
dairy community.
A conference on
environment followed up on the latest achievements regarding
the life-cycle analysis for greenhouse gas emissions from
the dairy chain and other conferences featured key topics
such as animal health & welfare and animal feeding to
address dairy sustainability issues from different perspectives.
A new Round Table on dairy supply chain issues gathered active
representatives from all parts of the dairy chain and the
ever-popular World Dairy Leaders Forum will gave delegates
the chance to hear the views of key players form the world's
major companies and raise issues with them face-to-face.
