Aviagen Recognizes Exceptional Performance by Customer Complexes

11/09/2021

In a November 2nd release, Aviagen recognized top achievers with a series of 2020 Flock Awards.  Four categories of excellence were defined including Top Egg Producer, Top Hatching Eggs, Top Production through 65 weeks, and Top Hatchability through 65 weeks. Awards were presented in the Ross 708 and Ross 308 categories in addition to the Ross 308 AP for the first time in 2020.
 

Awards are based on records for flocks depleted during the previous year with at least six flocks considered.
