Hybrid in Action: Connecting at the ITF Winter Meeting

Last week, our team was pleased to attend Iowa Turkey Federation's annual Winter Meeting. This event is always a great opportunity to connect with partners and friends in the turkey industry.

The day began with information sessions on technical topics, including turkey health, genetics, and industry updates. Blair McCorriston, Director of Sales & Commercial Excellence highlighted exciting product enhancements that are flowing through commercial flocks, developments in the R&D program to create stronger, healthier birds as well as how Hybrid is expanding their genetic engine via partnerships with growers and companies like TurkeyTrac.

We were also very thankful for the chance to be on ITF's new podcast, the Turkey Talk Show, and had a great conversation with Sheila Larson, ITF and Jason Yordy, TurkeyTrac.

The event wrapped up with a traditional turkey dinner, followed by fun entertainment and fellowship.

Thank you to ITF for organizing another successful event. It was a great way to close out the year with the warm, friendly atmosphere the turkey industry is known for.
