During the four events, they engaged in rich discussions on topics specifically tailored to address the challenges of poultry production in the dynamic region of Central America. From managing broiler breeders, they covered numerous areas of successful poultry farming. They also explored the importance of diet and nutrition and the often-forgotten nutrient of water, and how to achieve optimal ventilation and environmental control. And, they learned the latest findings on disease management and biosecurity.

“Aviagen Latin America cares about our customers in the important and dynamic region of Latin America. Connecting with them and sharing knowledge tailored to their success has been an absolute pleasure,” remarked Rodrigo Cisoto, head of Technical Services for Aviagen in Central America, Mexico and the Caribbean. “Our ongoing goal is to equip them with information to maximize the performance, sustainability, health and welfare of their Ross 308 AP flocks, enabling them to continue to provide a vital food source to their local communities.”
