CPC Poultry School Honours Dr. Mohammed Farouk Bedewi

The 9th CPC Poultry School organized by the Cairo Poultry Company, parent company of CPGP and CMPG, distributors of Hubbard breeding stock in Egypt, took place on 4-10 March 2007 in Egypt at Hurghada on the Red Sea.

This year the school was dedicated to a dear friend of the Egyptian poultry industry, Dr. Mohammed Farouk Bedewi, who very sadly passed away earlier this year after a long period of illness.

Complimenting the invitees from Egypt the school also had some international attendees with 4 participants from Saudi Arabia of the Taasil Company and 3 from the Al Jazeera Grandparents company in Jordan.

Dr. Alaa Abdou, Director of Technical Services for the Hubbard distributor, introduced the CPC School and its lecturers on behalf of Dr. Nabil Darwish, Executive Managing Director.

All aspects of modern poultry husbandry including Breeding and Genetics, Physiology, Nutrition, and the Veterinary aspects of Management were covered. Mr. Alastair Lewin (senior technician of Hubbard) gave presentations on “How to manage the Hubbard Flex breeder for out of season flocks” and “Male management”.

Mr. Jean-Jacques Trevidy (Hubbard consultant) gave a more detailed presentation on “How to manage Flex”.
As in previous years this event was very much appreciated by all attendees, as it offers them an excellent transfer of technical knowledge.
