Programme
Farm Animal
Very proudly and with great pleasure we announce that also this year there will be an interesting and challenging programme for practitioners working with large animals.
If we want to be the best we can in our jobs, we must extend our learning curve throughout our professional life. There is no better place to do that, than at the European Veterinary Conference Voorjaarsdagen! We will provide a diverse scientific programme and an excellent social atmosphere, where you can also speak with the industry.
