"Both of these excellent companies have great teams that are dedicated to the fine details of flock management. To achieve higher and better performance each year while winning the Cobb Champion Awards is the testament of the consistency of their on-farm management and we are truly glad to have them as partners."

The Cobb Champion awards recognise the top-performing facilities in Asia. Each year, Cobb Asia collects breeder performance data to benchmark customer results.

Wang Jinsheng, general manager of Shandong Fengxiang, said: "We are thankful to the Cobb Asia team for their continuous support over the years.

The possibilities of the Cobb flock is much higher than most people realise and we are just beginning to tap into that potential."
