This webinar will broadcast at 7:00 AM CST (Chicago) / 1:00 PM GMT (London) / 9:00 PM CST (Beijing).
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
- In the poultry and egg sector, the main contributors to Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are feeds and manure.
- Smart crop farming (e.g., drones for strategic use of fertilizers) and extensive data analysis allow nutritionists to formulate the least cost and least environmental impact poultry rations.
- Preventing mortality, reducing morbidity, and maximizing birds' gut health ensure that more chicken meat and eggs are produced per kilo of feed. This contributes to a lower GHG impact on the poultry value chains.
This webinar is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim and presented by WATTPoultry.
