Cobb publishes new white paper on pullet rearing

The Cobb technical team has published new guidelines to improve pullet ventilation and the process of selecting and installing light traps in rearing houses.

The newest white paper by Andrew Bourne, world technical services specialist, is for industry professionals to review when designing, building or updating ventilation systems.

The white paper features critical information to consider when selecting and installing light traps, including:
