In his presentation Mr. Ir. Virnanda Aprila Hapsara, S.Pt., M.M., IPU., ASEAN Eng. conveyed "I hope that universities and industry have the same understanding of the term feed additive. What is a feed additive, what is a feed supplement are two things that must be distinguished. For feed additives, the concept is all additional substances that are non-competitive, if feed supplements are those that already exist but still need to be added. "For example, vitamins, amino acids and minerals are usually already present but are added outside the feed," said Ir. Virnanda. After the presentation continued with discussion activities. This public lecture event ended with the presentation of certificates to the speakers and moderator.
