Invitation
It gives us great pleasure to invite you to the 6th Greenhouse Gas and Animal Agriculture Conference (GGAA2016), from 14 to 18 February 2016, to be held in Melbourne, Australia.
The conference will feature leading scientists and policymakers who will review the current state of knowledge and present significant new developments and advancements in the measurement, modelling and mitigation of greenhouse gasses from animal agriculture. All registered delegates will have the opportunity to publish their research in a peer reviewed special edition of Animal Production Science, with all abstracts published in the conference proceedings. Attendees of the conference are also encouraged to take part in a number of scientific satellite events and workshops that will precede the main conference.
While the conference is focused on research and associated policy developments it will also be of value to research investors, government policy makers, farm advisers and representatives from the livestock industries.
In addition to an excellent scientific program, we have also prepared an exciting social program that will provide delegates an opportunity to explore, indulge and relax during their stay in Melbourne. The Welcome Reception and Gala Dinner will give participants a chance to network while enjoying the cuisine, culture and warm hospitality of Melbourne, Australia, of one of the world's most liveable cities.
We look forward to seeing you at the GGAA2016 conference.
Richard Eckard,
on behalf of the local organising committee
