Registration for Aquafeed Horizons Closing Monday!

Well over a hundred delegates from all over the world have pre-registered for the aquafeed industry conference to take advantage of the information to be presented by an international panel of experts.

Aquafeed Horizons is presented by Aquafeed.com, the aquafeed industry information gateway and Fiskeriforskning, the Norwegian Institute of Fisheries and Aquaculture Research. Scientists from Fiskeriforskning Department of Aquafeed Development and Marine Processing, Bergen, Norway are among the speakers who will reveal latest concepts in feed development for aquatic species, cutting edge aquafeed technologies and developments in aquaculture markets.

The conference will take place during VIctam International 2007, in Utrecht, the Netherlands, giving delegates the opportunity to visit the feed industry's preeminent trade show and see the very latest in feed equipment and ingredients.
