VIV Health & Nutrition Asia 2026 to showcase animal feed and health innovations in Bangkok

THAILAND – VIV Health & Nutrition Asia 2026 will take place from 10–12 March at the Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre (BITEC), bringing together innovations and businesses across the animal feed and health industry. 

Co-locating with VICTAM Asia and Horti & Agri Asia, the event will cover the full agrifood value chain, from feed processing and agricultural inputs to veterinary solutions and livestock performance technologies. 

Exhibitors will span poultry, swine, aquaculture, beef cattle, and dairy sectors, presenting solutions in feed ingredients, additives, pharmaceuticals, and farm technology.

More than 300 international exhibitors are expected to occupy over 9,000 square metres of exhibition space, drawing an anticipated audience of 9,000 industry professionals from across Asia and beyond. 

The conference programme will feature over 150 expert speakers delivering more than 30 free-to-attend sessions over three days, addressing topics such as animal nutrition, disease control, feed formulation, and farm-level technology applications. 

The overarching theme of the 2026 event is shaping the future of animal feed and health through sustainability and innovation.

Conference programme and technical focus

The exhibition is structured around four technical pillars. Biosecurity and disease control sessions will focus on African Swine Fever, antimicrobial resistance, and next-generation veterinary diagnostics. 

Sustainability discussions will highlight circular economy models, insect protein commercialisation, and One Health frameworks that balance productivity with environmental responsibility. 

The technology and innovation strand will feature live demonstrations of digital health tools, smart farm systems, and pharmaceutical advancements, while the animal nutrition pillar addresses feed formulation optimisation, gut microbiome modulation, and precision feeding across all major species.

The Aquatic Conference, co-organised with International Aquafeed on 9 March, will focus on feed sourcing, disease management, efficiency, and sustainable partnerships in Southeast Asia’s expanding aquaculture sector. 

From 10 March, plenary and species-specific tracks will feature discussions led by Thailand’s National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (BIOTEC) on emerging ASF technologies and sustainable shrimp production. 

Updates on antibiotic reduction and disease monitoring will be provided by Elanco, Mixscience, and the World Organisation for Animal Health. 

The programme concludes on 12 March with the Asian Animal Health Award Ceremony, hosted by the Federation of Asian Veterinary Associations.
