The Aviagen UK customer support team has embarked on its biennial broiler roadshow, traveling to Yorkshire on 23 April 23, Shropshire on the 24 and Norfolk on the 25. At each location, the team spoke to connected with Ros® 308 growers and representatives from the wider UK broiler sector, sharing practical advice to maximise the welfare, sustainability, performance and efficiency of their flocks.
The events were led by UK broiler technical managers Kieron Daniels and Sean Harrison, alongside guest speaker Mike Czarick, poultry science engineer from the University of Georgia in the US.
Sean Harrison shared his ‘secrets to broiler success’, based on his experiences as an award-winning broiler farmer. Mike Czarick talked about ‘hot weather management and misting in the UK’.
They also took the opportunity to present Ross 440 Club winners with their awards and to promote the new Ross 450 Club.
Stuart Thomson, Head of Sales and Technical, said: “We were delighted with the enthusiastic response from the UK broiler sector and enjoyed the lively discussions.
“It is important for us to exchange knowledge and practical experience with all involved in broiler growing and bring renowned guest speakers like Mike to our audiences.”
