Feed Additives to Mitigate Methane Symposium: Recommendations Published in a Journal of Dairy Science Special Issue (half day)

Date and time pending

This year, the Journal of Dairy Science released a special issue synthesizing decades of nutrition innovation on feed additives for methane reduction to help scientists, dairy professionals, product developers, producers, and consumers fill knowledge gaps and build trust around feed additives. This symposium will focus on each of the six articles’ detailed technical recommendations—covering the full spectrum of additive development and implementation—and actionable best practices. Learn more.

ADSA Dairy Foods Division International Partnership Program (IPP) Symposium: The Netherlands Food Valley—Protein and Lipid Functionalities for Future Dairy Products

Wednesday, June 25, 2025
8:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
Additional fee required

The International Partnership Program Symposium, held each year on the final day of the ADSA Annual Meeting, is where scientists from research centers and regions outside North America present their unique work to a largely US-based audience. Although the Dairy Foods Division organizes the symposium, the intent is to have Production and Dairy Foods cross-disciplinary presentations to help bring our divisions closer together. The 2025 symposium will feature a mix of academic and industry speakers from the Netherlands Food Valley, including Danone, Ausnutria BV, Wageningen University & Research, and Utrecht University.

ADSA 2025 Annual Meeting Opening Session and Reception | Designing Dairy 2045: Envisioning the Future of Cows, Dairy Products, and Farms

Sunday, June 22, 2025
6:00 p.m.–8:15 p.m.

Join us for the opening session of the ADSA 2025 Annual Meeting as we explore the long-term future of dairy and how our connected global scientific community is powering it. This dynamic moderated panel discussion will delve into key themes shaping the next 20 years, including the evolving role of genomics in selecting more sustainable cows, the growing importance of consumer perceptions, and the impact of artificial intelligence and sensor technologies. 

An expert lineup of speakers representing dairy production and foods will offer insights on topics ranging from the genetics of cow resilience and methane mitigation to artificial intelligence–powered farm operations and consumer-driven product innovation—encompassing management, environmental impact, and farm profitability. This session sets the stage for deeper dives into these critical areas during subsequent hot-topic sessions focused on the future of the cow, dairy products, and farm systems. 

Start your brainstorming and collaboration right afterward by mingling at a reception ahead of the scientific programming! Learn more.
