Ross
Poultry Breeders, RPB, supplies breeding stock to the South African broiler industry
and is the leading provider of broiler parent stock in South Africa. It has a
strategic link through a technology agreement with the 10% equity holder Aviagen
Ltd, which provides it with a competitive edge domestically, in genetics, technology
and ongoing research and development in the poultry industry.
Ross Poultry Breeders is proud of its achievement in the development of the "Ross 788" broiler which is the only broiler in South Africa that has been specifically bred for broiler production at high altitude. This is significant as approximately 50% of South Africa's poultry is reared at high altitude.
Ross Poultry Breeders undertakes pedigree selection, produces grandparents from pedigree stock and ultimately produces day old grandparents and parents for sale to the poultry interests of Astral Foods and for the broader poultry market both domestically and in the southern Africa region.
Ross Poultry supplies broiler grand parent stock to Elite Breeding Farms, one of the leading producers of "Ross 788" and "Ross 308" broiler parent stock in South Africa. Elite Breeding Farms supplies parent stock to the Astral companies, County Fair and National Chick Limited.
