Scaling up/ Increase the capacity of a processline for grinding and drying waste into a paste that can be used to feed the black soldier fly larvae.

A new Feed Pilot plant, which will be built offers companies the opportunity to conduct technical experiments focusing on the production process itself by carrying out tests into feeds. On the other hand, the produced precision test feeds will be usable through three channels to evaluate nutritional innovations and put them into practice. And thirdly, at the request of private companies, test feeds will also be produced so that they can also conduct practical research themselves.

Industry Research Project “Salmonella 2“ , Process for safe hygienisation of compound feed. Applicant: The IFF Research Institute is the scientific centre of the compound-feed industry and its suppliers. For more than 50 years, it has been supporting the entire industry through community and contract research results, a wide range of services and a comprehensive range of training and education events.

The main aim of this project is to develop innovations required to manufacture quality pelleted feeds that contribute to the realization of a circular agriculture with less starch from primary products and with more co-products being potentially fibrous in nature. Applicants: Wageningen University

Rumen8 is a free software application that allows farmers and consultants to easily manage dairy and beef cattle diets to increase production and reduce costs. An emphasis on ease of use sets it apart from many other nutrition applications which makes it ideal for quickly creating or checking diets by farm managers, owners and visiting nutritionists.                                                                                                      

Applicant: SNV is a not-for-profit international development organisation that makes a lasting difference in the lives of people living in poverty by helping them raise incomes and access basic services.

Roughly yearly the International Feed Technology Congress (IFTC) is held during a 2019 VICTAM exhibition, the first in 2019.

The Congress generally brings together approx. 100 researchers from universities, research institutions and industry. The congress exhibited thematic presentations by international key note speakers as well as oral and poster presentations.

Project information will be shared as soon as it's available.

Breaking behaviour of diet ingredients, equivalent particle size and its relation with animal performance. This research into breaking behaviour of ingredients and the equivalent particle size is very innovative and of great value for the international animal feed industry. Applicant: Wageningen University.

As the first edition of the ASEAN Feed Summit proved to be successful in 2014, the summit took place again in 2016 during the FIAAP, VICTAM & GRAPAS Asia 2016 event. The summit was organized by Victam International BV, sponsored by the Victam Foundation and hosted by the Thai Feed Mill Manufacturers Association.
