      By 2020, we could be feeding insects and algae to pigs, says Mick Hazzledine of Premier Nutrition. At the BPEX Innovation Conference next week, he will present some alternative feed ingredients including insect meal, algae, peas, beans and yeast.

　　到2020，我們可能會使用昆蟲和藻類來飼養豬，Premier Nutrition公司米克哈茲爾丁說。在下周BPEX創新大會上，它將提出一些可替代飼料原料包括昆蟲、藻類、豌豆、豆類和酵母。

      Mick will analyse the nutritional potential and practicalities of these raw materials and give a verdict on which options pig producers are most likely to be feeding in a few years' time。

　　米克將分析這些原料的營養潛力和實用性，并推斷出養殖者今后幾年內最有可能使用的原料選項。

　　The potential of plant breeders to help with pig nutrition is also on the agenda. Chris Tapsell of KWS UK Ltd will discuss opportunities to move away from feed crops as commodities and breed crops to add value and benefit for feed producers。

　　植物育種者對豬營養的幫助潛力也被提上日程。英國克里斯塔普塞爾KWS公司討論糧食作物不再作為期貨和育種品種，為飼料生產商增值、增益的機遇。

　　He says: "If suitable relationships can be developed between producers, feed companies and breeders, we can develop the breeding targets together and establish a supply chain where added value is shared appropriately."

　　他說：“如果在生產者、飼料公司、育種者三者之間發展起合適的聯系，我們可以一起推進育種目標，建立增值效益適當共享的供應鏈。

　　The conference will showcase the future of pig feeding and data recording and is being held on Tuesday 24 June at Stoneleigh Park in Warwickshire from 09:45 to 17:00, with lunch and refreshments provided.
