Message from IPEMA President, Mr. Uday Singh Bayas:

Speaking at the curtain raiser, Mr. Uday Singh Bayas, President of IPEMA, emphasized the role of Poultry India Expo as a critical event for strengthening the industry’s economic and social contributions. “The poultry sector is a vital component of India’s food security and rural economy, supporting over a million poultry farmers. However, rising input costs, particularly for feed ingredients like maize and soya, compounded by GST on soya meal and poultry equipment, are imposing severe financial strains on our farmers. We appeal to the government for priority interventions to stabilize feed prices and expand access to affordable credit. Exemptions from GST on essential feed and equipment, increased Rabi maize cultivation, and a regulated approach to corn imports for ethanol production would greatly alleviate these burdens.”

In urging for government support, Mr. Bayas also highlighted the importance of expanding vaccine import protocols, establishing egg nutrition programs in school meals, and fostering export opportunities. “We need dedicated support to strengthen our export capabilities and enhance India’s standing as a major poultry exporter,” Mr. Bayas remarked, inviting the industry and media to champion the cause of sustainable growth.

EW Nutrition, one of leading innovators in the animal nutrition industry, has officially launched its newest product, Axxess XY, in VICTAM Asia 2024, at the BITEC Exhibition Center in Bangkok.
According to a statement by EW Nutrition, Axxess XY is an intrinsically thermostable xylanase that breaks down both the soluble and insoluble fiber fraction from feed ingredients such as corn, wheat, grain by-products and oilseed cakes. It releases nutrients trapped in cell wall fractions and improves the gut environment by reducing viscosity. The newly launched product thus gives feed producers peace of mind when working with various feed processing conditions, as well as significant feed cost savings with flexibility in feed formulation, the company points out.

“The successful launch of Axxess XY in VICTAM Asia 2024 demonstrates our commitment to provide cutting-edge solutions to address the evolving needs of animal production and to contribute to the growth of the industry in the region,” said Ramakanta Nayak, regional director for EW Nutrition South East Asia/Pacific.

Dr. Ajay Awati, Global Director of Enzymes, EW Nutrition, expressed enthusiasm about the product launch, stating, “We are excited to have had such an amazing response to Axxess XY during and after our launch at VICTAM Asia 2024. Axxess XY is the result of EW Nutrition R&D team’s hard work and dedication to pushing the boundaries of enzymes technology in animal nutrition.”

Axxess XY is touted as the most advanced xylanase yet making EW Nutrition an important player in the enzyme market.

A more sustainable approach in logistics and decoration is also a focus.”

Looking ahead, what are the long-term visions and goals for Victam in terms of global outreach and industry impact?
