The two-day seminar took place in Antalya, Turkey and was attended by 35 delegates, representing all parts of the Iraqi broiler industry and including dignitaries from the Ministry of Agriculture.

The Ross 308 was successfully introduced in Iraq last year and with Ross broilers now on the ground, the timing was ideal to provide customers with essential advice on all aspects of broiler management, including nutrition, ventilation and vaccination. The entire event was dedicated to providing attendees with best practice to maximize broiler performance under Iraqi environmental conditions.

Michael Garden, Regional Technical Manager, commented: “We work very closely with Rasun to ensure Iraqi customers receive the most up-to-date and relevant management advice. This seminar was an ideal opportunity to meet the customers and share information and experiences.”

Dr Salah Bakir, Chairman and CEO of Vano added: “The Ross 308 is proving to be extremely popular in Iraq and with the quality of technical advice and support on offer from Rasun and the Ross team; product performance will continue to improve. This seminar complemented the breeder seminar we held last year and is another demonstration of our close partnership.”
