EuroTier 2026 will focus on the theme “Intelligence in Animal Farming”, putting the spotlight on smart systems that combine efficiency, animal welfare, and sustainability.

The trade fair also features more than 500 events, workshops, and conferences tailored to key topics such as animal welfare, circular agriculture, climate technology, regulations, and market trends. Innovation is further encouraged through the prestigious EuroTier Innovation Award program, where leading solutions and technologies are judged by an independent panel of experts.

Stay up to date with the latest developments in the sector through the extensive range of exhibitors and hands-on presentations. See how Bextral is responding to these trends with innovative feed additive solutions for gut health, pathogen management, digestive efficiency, and feed conversion.

EuroTier is therefore more than just a trade fair: it’s a strategic window into the future of professional animal production.
