IFCN Dairy Forum brought together people from 85 countries with different backgrounds to discuss greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from dairy with a special focus on emerging countries.

IFCN World Dairy Map 2021 is aimed equally at dairy analysts – juniors and seniors, students and professors, milk experts and amateurs.

What are the latest & future developments in the dairy market? Where is the starting point for the dairy in the future and its sustainability? What are the key drivers of the milk price?

The two-day event was a great success and brought together more than 700 dairy experts from 72 countries and 207 companies and institutions. While there are still obstacles to overcome on the path to transforming the dairy sector into its digital future, participants and panellists agree that the benefits clearly prevail.

Over 20 years IFCN has strived to create a better understanding of the dairy world and has stood by its values of trust, truth and independence. The current fast-changing and complex dairy world makes market intelligence vital for your organisation’s success. IFCN provides three blocks of dairy market intelligence (MI) services.

How tight is the connection between changes in the farm structure and dairy farm economics? Is milk supply being affected by current milk and feed price developments? Where is the starting point for the dairy in the future and its sustainability?

The event connected over 1000 dairy experts from 81 countries. Carbon dioxide levels in the air are at their highest level in 650,000 years and we have seen 19 of the warmest years since 2000. Livestock and thus dairy farming undeniably contribute to greenhouse gas emissions (GHG).

25% of global dairy GHG emissions are from dairy farms in developed countries.
75% of global dairy GHG emissions are from dairy farms in emerging countries.

The 22nd IFCN Dairy Conference is less than three weeks away and behind the scenes the preparations are in full swing! So far, more than 550 participants have registered!

Our top guests from the industry will be discussing their ideas on the topic of carbon neutrality and tell us whether they think it will be possible reach carbon neutrality in dairy production until 2050 – or not.
