Six university researchers will present findings from recently completed research projects funded by the U.S. Poultry & Egg Association (USPOULTRY) and its Foundation as part of the ever-popular TECHTalks at the 2020International Production &Processing Expo(IPPE). The research presentations will be given in the TECHTalksTheater in C-Hall, Booth C9249, from 9:30 a.m. –12p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 30. All of theTECHTalks presentations are free to registered IPPE attendees.

“This will be the third year IPPE will offer presentations of recently completed USPOULTRY research projects, and each year it has proved to be a successful program. On a yearly basis, USPOULTRY and the USPOULTRY Foundation fund more than $1 million in research projects benefitting the poultry and egg industry. Funding research on this scale is possible due to the continued success of the International Poultry Expo, part of IPPE, as well as the success of the programs it offers,”said Dr. Denise Heard, director of research for USPOULTRY.

The agenda for “Current Poultry Research and Findings: Information You Need to Know to Help Your Business” can be found below. Topics will include peracetic acid-based disinfectants, variant strains of IBV antimicrobial efficacy of organic acid blends, an update on blackhead research, broiler welfare and woody breast detection.
