Ready to meet 193 companies from 22 countries will gather at ICE, BSD City, 16–18 September, as ILDEX Indonesia and Horti & Agri Indonesia connect livestock, agriculture, technology and investment opportunities across Asia’s fast-evolving food production ecosystem.
Asia’s livestock and agriculture industries are entering a new era of opportunity as population growth, urbanization, changing diets and rising demand for animal protein reshape the global food economy.
The latest OECD–FAO Agricultural Outlook 2026–2035 projects that Southeast Asia and India will contribute an estimated 39% of global agricultural consumption growth by 2035. As incomes and urban populations rise, demand is expected to increasingly shift from staple foods toward livestock and fish products, creating parallel demand for feed, production technology, genetics, animal health, automation and more efficient agricultural systems.
At the same time, Asia is expected to remain a major center of agricultural production growth, making productivity, technology adoption and investment increasingly important to meeting future food demand. Against this backdrop, Indonesia is emerging as an increasingly important market connecting food demand, livestock production, agriculture and technology in Southeast Asia.
From 16–18 September 2026, ILDEX Indonesia 2026, co-located with Horti & Agri Indonesia 2026, will bring this opportunity to Hall 5–6, Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE), BSD City, connecting Indonesian businesses with technologies, expertise and potential partners from across Asia and the world.
193 companies from 22 countries connect with Indonesia
The 2026 edition of ILDEX Indonesia co-located Horti & Agri Indonesia will bring together 193 exhibiting companies — 83 Indonesian and 110 international companies — from 22 countries, across 9,720 sqm of gross exhibition space.
International participation will be strengthened by Thailand, EU, China and North American pavilions, creating a marketplace where Indonesian producers and buyers can compare technologies from multiple markets while overseas companies explore opportunities to build partnerships and expand in Indonesia.
The exhibition covers critical stages of the livestock and animal protein value chain, from feed ingredients and additives, feed technology, animal health, breeding and hatching to farm production, automation and meat and egg processing.
Farm production currently represents the exhibition’s largest segment at 35.9%, followed by animal health at 10.0%, feed ingredients & additives at 9.5%, meat processing at 8.8%, feed technology at 7.1%, and breeding & hatching at 5.3%.
Visitors will meet international technology providers including Big Dutchman, SKOV, Big Herdsman, Huali, Valli and Retech in farm production; Evonik, Gepro and Vetagro in feed ingredients and additives; Famsun in feed technology; Idena and Vet Superior in animal health; and Aviagen and Hy-Line in breeding and hatching.
The downstream production sector will feature companies including Nabel, Vancomatic, Sanovo, Baader, Bayle, MOBA, Meyn and Mayekawa, alongside major industry players including Japfa Comfeed and Charoen Pokphand.
Asia’s growth is creating a new technology and investment opportunity – The opportunity extends well beyond Indonesia
The OECD–FAO outlook projects that global agricultural production will continue expanding over the coming decade, with much of that growth concentrated in emerging and middle-income economies.
Rising incomes and urbanization are also expected to increase demand for animal-source foods, while more intensive livestock and aquaculture production is projected to increase global feed protein consumption by 13.5% by 2035.
This creates a significant business opportunity — but also a productivity challenge.
Future growth cannot depend only on producing more. Producers will need to produce more efficiently, sustainably and competitively, increasing demand for better genetics, nutrition, animal health, farm management, automation, processing technology, biosecurity and data-driven production.
For global technology suppliers, these structural changes are making Asia an increasingly important market for long-term expansion. For Asian producers, they are making access to international technology and expertise increasingly important for competitiveness.
ILDEX Indonesia is positioned at the intersection of these two needs
“The next chapter of global livestock and agricultural growth is increasingly being shaped in Asia. Population growth, urbanization and rising demand for protein are creating enormous opportunities, but they are also challenging our industry to produce more efficiently, sustainably and competitively,” said by Supanat Treeratpicharn, Senior Project Manager, VNU Asia Pacific.
The 2026 edition also marks another step in the development of the ILDEX platform, with ILDEX Indonesia moving to an annual format from 2026, creating a more regular meeting point between Indonesia and the international livestock industry.
Beyond livestock: Connecting the wider agriculture and food ecosystem – The opportunity in Asia does not stop at animal production
Food security increasingly depends on the connection between livestock, crops, water, agricultural technology, climate resilience, post-harvest systems and efficient food production. This wider perspective will be represented through the co-location of Horti & Agri Indonesia 2026, extending the platform from livestock into the broader agricultural ecosystem.
Horti & Agri Indonesia will showcase solutions covering greenhouse technology, irrigation and water management, seeds and seedlings, crop protection, agricultural and industrial components, and post-harvest and packaging technology, with participating companies from Thailand, Singapore, China and Hong Kong.
The exhibition will also provide Business Matching with qualified buyers throughout all three show days, alongside a knowledge program addressing some of the major issues shaping the future of Asian agriculture.
Day 1 will feature ‘The Future of Tropical Agriculture: Downstream and Upstream Development for a High-Value Bioeconomy’, while Day 2 will present the Rice Resilience Forum 2026: ‘Building a Competitive, Climate-Resilient, and Sustainable Rice Ecosystem from Farm to Market’, together with the Indonesian Youth Farmers Seminar.
Together, ILDEX Indonesia and Horti & Agri Indonesia create a broader business platform connecting: Livestock + Agriculture + Technology + Knowledge + Markets, reflecting how the future of food production is becoming increasingly interconnected.
Indonesia becomes the next meeting point for Asia’s agribusiness community
For international companies, Indonesia provides access to a major Southeast Asian market and an opportunity to understand local requirements, identify distributors and develop long-term partnerships.
And for the wider livestock and agriculture community, the co-located exhibitions create a place to discuss one central business question: How will Asia produce the food needed for its next era of growth?
ILDEX Indonesia 2026 aims to bring the people, technologies and partnerships that can help answer it together in one place.
Pre-register now and be part of Asia’s next agribusiness opportunity
Industry professionals across livestock, poultry, feed, animal health, farming, processing, agriculture, distribution and food production are invited to pre-register in advance and plan their business visit.
Pre-registration allows visitors to prepare before arriving, identify relevant technologies and suppliers, and make the most of three days of sourcing, knowledge exchange and business networking.
