Cobb Europe to host second Cobb Talks webinar series

Following a successful first series and continued demand for expertise in the industry, Cobb Europe will host a second Cobb Talks webinar series.

Running weekly from April through June, anyone in the poultry industry is invited to attend. The series will cover three topics specifically requested by attendees of the previous series, namely, ventilation, hatchery and health.

Cobb received more than 2,000 registrations for the first Cobb Talks series in November. Exit surveys indicated the industry is seeking for more from the series, according to the company.

Cobb remains committed to staying connected with customers and providing expertise during these difficult times, the company said.

"I don't think many of us anticipated a year ago that we would still face the current travel restrictions and continued challenges," said Nigel Strain, senior regional manager of technical service at Cobb Europe. "There is a light at the end of the tunnel. In the meantime, we are committed to doing all we can to support and engage with our customers and our industry." 

The weekly sessions will cover a different topic of interest for each month. April sessions will focus on ventilation, May will focus on hatchery, and June will be on health. The sessions will examine specific subjects within these topic areas, such as warm weather ventilation, egg quality, hatchery troubleshooting, farm hygiene and cleanout and hen mortality in lay.

Industry-leading technical specialists from Cobb Europe and the Cobb World Technical Team will teach the audience best practices and skills in these areas. Cobb experts like Andrew Bourne (broiler specialist), Brendan Graaf (broiler specialist), Mark Foote (hatchery specialist) and Andre Derkx (senior veterinarian), will appear several times throughout the series alongside fellow Cobb specialists with deep technical expertise.

After each session, attendees will be able participate in a live Q&A. They will also have access to the recording and earn a certificate of attendance to demonstrate their enhanced skills.

Nigel Strain, senior regional manager of technical services, and Paul Welten, senior technical service team manager, will host.
