Achievements
Dr. Stein gave a talk at Novonesis Animal Health and Nutrition, he talked about: "Why limestone is the most important ingredient in the diet" and "Requirements for calcium and phosphorus in developing gilts and sows".
Dr. Stein also gave a conference at IFCT 2026. 3rd International Feed Technology Congress. Victam, Utrecht, the Netherlands. June 2-3, 2026. He talked about: "Use of feed technology to improve energy and nutrient utilization of diets for growing pigs".
