Welcome to the 56th Annual SASAS Congress
07–09 July 2026 | Lagoon Beach Hotel, Cape Town

AAs Agriculture evolves, animal science stands at the center of innovation, collaboration, and sustainable development. The 2026 Congress theme, “Gearing Up: Animal Science and Beyond,” reflects the dynamic interconnections between animal science and the broader agricultural landscape. Like gears in a complex system, animal scientists drive progress through advances in nutrition, genetics, reproduction, physiology, health, and product science - each cog turning in harmony with others across the agricultural value chain.

This congress invites participants to explore how animal science interfaces with allied disciplines and emerging technologies, to strengthen the links between research, production, policy, and society.

By gearing up together, we move beyond disciplinary silos toward a more resilient, integrated, and forward-looking agricultural future.
