HDRF Conference 2026

Contributions are invited to Free Oral Communications and Poster Sessions.

In addition to Plenary Presentations the Conference Sessions will feature Short Oral and Poster Communications. We welcome all submissions relevant to dairying, but those focused on the theme of Responsible Dairying will be especially welcome. There will also be opportunity to present as part of the JDR pre-Conference session, and for this all aspects of dairying are equally welcome. Abstracts accepted for the JDR session will be published open-access as a short Supplement in the Journal of Dairy Research.

To submit an Abstract for consideration you must use the Submission Form shown below. Please study the Example Abstract and follow the submission instructions carefully.
