Chance to plan your dairy business future with the world's best in Kentucky, USA

The "opportunity of a lifetime" is on offer to one British dairy farmer as Alltech finalises the delegate list for the inaugural Global Dairy 500 conference that takes places in Kentucky, USA, from 10 to 12 September 2008.

The company is offering to pay flights and accommodation for the dairy farmer who makes the strongest case for being selected to attend this unprecedented gathering of industry leaders, but applications are required no later than 10 August.

As Alltech's UK Business General Manager Ian Leach explains, the conference will provide an opportunity to debate the major issues alongside the most progressive professional milk producers in the world, and is an opportunity not to be missed.

"The event will cover nutrition and health, business planning and milk branding as well as wider challenges such as climate change and biofuels," he explains. "It will be three days packed with stimulating debate and a real chance for those attending to review and plan their future dairy farming strategies. There will also be ample opportunity during the event to sample all that is special about Alltech and its home state of Kentucky."
