Highlights from the Annual NTF Convention

It was a pleasure to connect with partners, customers, and old friends at the Annual National Turkey Federation (NTF) Convention in Scottsdale, AZ. The convention provided a valuable platform for in-depth discussions and presentations on industry challenges, economic outlook, and more.

Impactful Research on aMPV Presented

The program featured two speakers from our team on Avian Metapneumovirus (aMPV), a significant concern facing the US turkey industry. Beata Ogonowska-Wozniak, DVM spoke on the aMPV vaccine in Europe, covering its past history and practical applications.

Dr. Evan VanBeusekom explored research on controlled exposure trials as a possible way to manage aMPV in commercial flocks. As the industry continues to seek innovative solutions for aMPV control, the insights shared at this event reinforce the importance of ongoing research and collaboration.
