As artificial intelligence continues to reshape manufacturing landscapes, the feed production industry stands on the cusp of a technological transformation. The upcoming Feed Mill of the Future Conference, set to take place on January 28 at IPPE 2025, promises to be a pivotal gathering for industry professionals seeking to understand and leverage the latest technological innovations. Leading experts are set to explore how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing feed mill control systems, moving beyond traditional rigid, step-by-step programming toward more dynamic, intelligent decision-making processes that could dramatically improve production efficiency, optimize scheduling and potentially pave the way for fully autonomous "lights out" facilities.
Organized in partnership with the American Feed Industry Association, the half-day event will bring together technology leaders, engineers and manufacturing strategists to examine emerging technologies poised to transform animal feed manufacturing, representing a critical nexus of innovation for an industry rapidly adapting to technological change.
