An International Conference on Agricultural and Veterinary Sciences serves as an academic platform where researchers, professionals, practitioners, and educators come together to discuss the latest advancements, share research findings, and address challenges in the fields of agriculture, veterinary sciences, and related disciplines. These conferences provide opportunities for networking, collaboration, and knowledge exchange on a global scale.

Typical Themes and Topics

The topics discussed covered various aspects of agriculture and veterinary science. Some of the common themes included:

1. Agricultural Science

• Crop Protection and Pest Management: Innovations in pest control, sustainable farming practices, and integrated pest management.
• Precision Agriculture: Use of technology (e.g., drones, IoT, AI, and machine learning) for optimizing crop production, monitoring soil health, and improving irrigation practices.
• Sustainable Farming Practices: Techniques for improving soil health, water conservation, and minimizing environmental impact.
• Agroecology and Organic Farming: Sustainable practices for growing food while maintaining ecological balance.
• Climate Change and Agriculture: Addressing the impacts of climate change on crop yields, food security, and adaptation strategies.
• Agricultural Biotechnology: Genetic modification, CRISPR technologies, and other biotechnological innovations aimed at improving crop resistance and yield.

2. Veterinary Sciences

• Animal Health and Disease Management: New techniques and treatments for livestock diseases, emerging zoonotic diseases, and veterinary public health.
• One Health Approach: The interconnection between human, animal, and environmental health, particularly in the context of zoonotic diseases.
• Veterinary Surgery and Diagnostics: Advancements in surgical techniques, diagnostic technologies, and imaging in veterinary medicine.
• Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics: Use of pharmaceuticals and vaccines in treating animal diseases, including livestock and companion animals.
• Animal Welfare and Ethics: Issues surrounding the humane treatment of animals in agriculture, research, and veterinary practices.
• Aquaculture Health and Disease: Focus on the health management of fish and aquatic species in aquaculture systems.

3. Food Security and Safety

• Food Safety and Quality Control: Ensuring the safety of animal-derived food products (meat, milk, eggs) from farm to table.
• Antimicrobial Resistance in Veterinary Medicine: Addressing the global challenge of antimicrobial resistance due to the overuse of antibiotics in livestock.
• Livestock Nutrition: Advances in nutrition to enhance livestock productivity, health, and sustainability.​
