German Society for Fat Science (DGF) acting as a neutral platform for knowledge exchange between scientific research and practical application, is pleased to announce the second conference on plant proteins, following the 2023 edition, under the title "The Future of Oilseeds: Prospects for Plant Proteins?", which will be held in Frankfurt am Main on March 10 and 11, 2025.
The future of oilseeds is increasingly intertwined with the growing demand for plant proteins, driven by consumer preferences for sustainable nutrition and the need for alternative protein sources. As global oilseed production is expected to reach record levels, the industry is adapting to these changes. However, the oilseed sector must embrace innovation and sustainable practices to meet these challenges and capitalize on emerging opportunities in plant-based food markets.
The global protein market continues to expand, with increasing demand for protein sources. Plant proteins, extracted from various plant groups such as legumes, nuts, and especially oilseeds, are rich in protein and also provide essential nutrients like fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Despite these nutritional benefits, these raw materials are still used to a limited extent in food production.
This conference offers a valuable opportunity to learn about the latest research findings in protein production, their food applications, and properties, and to discuss them with experts and other participants. Speakers will include experts from the oil processing industry, research institutions, and the food applications sector.
The information presented at this conference is designed for all stakeholders in the vegetable oil and legume industry, as well as consumers and professionals involved in the evaluation and marketing of proteins.
