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.
A Successful "Party on the Green"!
We hosted a well-attended hospitality event, providing an excellent opportunity for networking. Guests enjoyed delicious food and drinks while taking in the stunning views of the golf course, fostering valuable connections and conversations.
Leadership Recognition
A special congratulations to Blair McCorriston, Director of Sales & Commercial Excellence, who was voted onto the NTF Executive Committee. Her leadership and expertise will be an asset in guiding the vision of this important committee.
The Annual NTF Convention once again proved to be a great event for collaboration, innovation, and progress in the turkey industry. We look forward to continuing these important conversations and seeing everyone again next year!
