Competitive breeder
Feed Conversion
Feed is now 60% of the total cost of producing a broiler. Feed costs are forecast to remain high for the next 1-2 years*. Efficient feed utilization is the most influential input in the management of live production cost.
Cobb selection of programs have emphasized efficiency and feed conversion as high priorities in the development of the Cobb500. Cobb achieves the lowest cost of producing a kilogram or pound of meat in markets around the world.
Efficient feed conversion and excellent growth rate assist in the customer's goal of achieving a target weight with the competitive advantage of lowest cost. Cobb combines both attributes in the world's most successful broiler, the Cobb500.
Lowest feed conversion together with the ability of the Cobb500 to thrive on lower density, less expensive feed, reduces the cost of producing chicken meat.
When lower density feed with reduced nutrient levels is fed to the Cobb500 it decreases feed ingredient costs without affecting performance.
Feed cost savings from a one million bird/week operation are over $2.8 million/year.
Uniformity
The Cobb500 Broiler has the best uniformity in the market. The higher uniformity gives the processor more birds within a target weight specified by the customer
The greater number of marketable broilers, the higher the sales revenue, optimizing customer revenue and profitability.
Cobb500 Breeder
