The 2025 BCBC conference will look to explore how the ‘herd’ of the future might look, for both stock and stock keepers?  Cattle production and breeding is essential for global food security, but what are our roles and responsibilities in ensuring we can continue to feed a growing population whilst reducing the impact on our planet. 

With the knowledge and enthusiasm to inspire and inform, challenge and encourage debate we are delighted to announce our line up of speakers will include:

• Professor Nigel Scollan - Queens University Belfast

• Dr Tianhai Yan - Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute

• Professor Andrew Dowsey - University of Bristol

• Hannah Batty - Veterinary Surgeon LLM and Nuffield Scholar

• Sophie Gregory - Farmer and Nuffield Scholar

• Dr Tullis Matson - Natures SAFE

• Dr Ginny Sherwin - Nottingham University

The full programme and booking details will be available in the autumn.
