According to Dr. Rafael Monleon, the Aviagen Group will establish a breeding operation in the Philippines to supply the domestic market. A feasibility study is in progress to confirm the viability of an enterprise intending to supply parent stock. This will require housing and a hatchery conforming to World Organization for Animal Health standards to attain Compartment status.
Dr. Monleon announced the intended project during a trade mission to Manila that included major U.S. agribusiness companies.
