October 16, 2024 - The inaugural Advancing Milling & Nutrition Conference, in conjunction with Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition and Australasian Equine Science Society, is being held at Crown Melbourne, May 13-14, 2025, and is a major initiative of ATMA, FIAAA and SFMCA. The two-day biennial conference will be a technically focused forum for feed, flour, ingredients and nutritionists to advance knowledge in all aspects of milling and the associated supply chains. The unity of multiple events under the one roof provides delegates the opportunity to move between sessions depending on their interests, whilst sponsors are exposed to delegates of all streams meaning increased exposure at no extra cost.
Submissions: feed, flour and ingredients - milling stream
You are invited to submit technical submissions for consideration in the program for flour, feed and ingredients (Milling Program).
For the Milling Program, the submission process is a two-step process.
Step 1 - The first step is an expression of interest which is a summary of your topic detailing why it is of interest to the conference theme, with enough information to assist the program committee in assessing the paper's value to the conference.

Step 2 - If accepted by the program committee for presentation you will be expected to submit a short technical paper of up to 600 words according to the guidelines on the website and due by February 1, 2025. The option exists for your paper to be published in a scientific journal after the conference should you wish.
All presentations at the conference must be editorial and not advertorial. Speakers will be introduced by name and company however the presentation will be on the conference template which excludes company logos and branding.
Desired abstract themes include, but are not limited to:
- Process & Nutritional Outcomes
- Ingredient Management & Quality
- Innovation & Technology
- Operational Management & Decision Making
Subject areas that fit the session themes could include, but are not limited to:
- Heavy Metal occurrence in feedstuff/ingredients
- Innovations in nutrient profiling for improving feeding efficiency or traceability
- Shipping challenges with data on trends impacting supply chains
- Food safety breaches in the last 10 years
- New ingredients/feed stuffs for people/ animals
- Improvements in processing of ingredients to improve animal performance
- Innovations in use of biomarkers for measuring nutritional stress and immune competency
- Innovations in silo management and feeding systems to improve feed efficiency and/or micro-ingredient delivery.
- Advances in the feeding of non-traditional species eg crocs, pets, aqua etc
- Process innovation and optimisation in flour mills
- Innovative end products of flour or Transitioning from flour to end products.
The closing date for expressions of interests will be November 6, 2024.
If successful you will be advised by November 14, 2024.
If invited to submit a full page paper, the closing date will be February 1, 2025.
