Bangkok, Thailand – 9 March 2026 – The Advanced Poultry Nutrition Forum 2026 (APNF 2026) will bring together senior poultry nutritionists, technical managers, feed formulators, and production leaders for a high-level, one-day technical forum in Bangkok, held immediately prior to VICTAM Asia 2026.
Positioned as a focused, application-driven platform, APNF 2026 is designed for professionals responsible for translating genetic progress into measurable commercial performance in both broiler and layer operations.
Bridging Genetic Progress with Nutritional Execution
Modern poultry genetics continue to advance at an unprecedented pace. Yet achieving the full biological and economic potential of today’s birds requires more than incremental formulation adjustments. It demands alignment between genetic capability, nutrient supply, and operational precision.
APNF 2026 is structured around this integrated theme—connecting genetic potential with practical nutritional execution for both broilers and layers.
Technical leaders from Aviagen and H&N International will lead dedicated breakout sessions addressing:
- Genetic potential and realistic performance expectations
- Current field performance: facts, data, and industry observations
- Economic implications of performance gaps
- Evaluating operation-level results to identify improvement opportunities
These sessions are designed to help participants critically assess their own flock performance while understanding the biological and financial realities shaping modern production systems.
From Potential to Performance: Precision Nutrition in Practice
Building on the genetic foundation, the Forum advances into applied nutritional strategy — translating performance targets into feed programs that deliver consistent, repeatable results.
For both broilers and layers, technical sessions will explore:
- Situational nutrition strategies
- Net energy systems and modern energy evaluation
- Functional amino acid application
- Precision feeding approaches aligned with genetic objectives
Rather than treating genetics and nutrition as isolated disciplines, APNF 2026 presents them as interdependent drivers of efficiency, uniformity, and return on feed investment.
Advanced Perspectives in Formulation, Additives and Gut Health
Complementing the genetics and core nutrition discussions, respected industry specialists will contribute applied insights into formulation science and feed optimization.
Contributing experts include:
- Prof. Julian Wiseman (Ecolex) – Feed additive evaluation and energy value assessment
- Ian Mealey (Datacor) – Data-driven formulation and nutrient modeling approaches
- Arno van de Aa (Orffa)—Practical strategies for optimizing gut microflora and nutrient utilization
Together, these sessions extend the discussion beyond theory, equipping participants with tools to manage ingredient variability, improve nutrient precision, and strengthen feed efficiency under commercial conditions.
A Strategic Pre-VICTAM Technical Platform
Held one day before VICTAM Asia 2026, APNF 2026 offers a concentrated technical environment ahead of broader industry engagement.
Participants will have the opportunity to:
- Gain forward-looking insight from global genetics and nutrition leaders
- Engage in focused, peer-level technical exchange
- Refine formulation and performance strategies prior to exhibition activities
Unlike exhibition-style presentations, the Forum format prioritizes in-depth discussion, practical application, and meaningful professional interaction.
Registration Information
Attendance is intentionally limited to maintain a high-level technical environment. With strong industry interest and seats filling steadily, early registration is strongly encouraged.
Registration fees will increase in March 2026.
