Ross 308 PS awards honor Aviagen ANZ's customers for remarkable performance

Aviagen recently acknowledged the strong achievements of its parent stock (PS) customers in Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands (Oceania).

The Aviagen Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) team recently celebrated the positive performance of these high-achieving farms during the recent Aviagen seminar in the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. The awards recognise farms that have reached the highest levels of egg and chick output for flocks placed in 2021 and completed in 2022.

Aviagen's Ross 308 breed has consistently delivered exceptional results globally, and the achievements of its customers in Oceania highlight the breed's strength in the region, the company said.

Overcoming the challenges posed by the recent COVID restrictions on people and movement, these farms demonstrated resilience and achieved remarkable flock performance, Aviagen added.

Michael Leahy, managing director of Aviagen ANZ, said: "We were delighted to see a very strong field of high performing PS flocks. The impressive egg and chick numbers reflect the value of the Ross 308 genetics, coupled with exceptional management skill and favorable growing conditions in the ANZ region. We look forward to continuing to see year-on-year improvement in PS flock performance."
