Sweden: Gimranäs seminar in Jönköping

Sweden: Gimranäs seminar in Jönköping
On June 25th, Gimranäs AB invited egg producers, pullet growers, representatives of the professional journals and feed industry to a seminar held in the central Swedish town of Jönköping.


More than 40 participants gathered together amidst glorious weather in the Elite Stora Hotel located at Lake Vättern.

After snacks and coffee, Mr. Börje Hjalmarsson welcomed his guests. In the first presentation, Dr. Hans-Heinrich Thiele, head of LTZ’s technical service department, highlighted the necessity of appropriate pullet rearing in order to achieve a good performance of the laying hen at a later stage. The second speaker, Robert Pottgüter, a nutritionist at LTZ, illustrated the basics of modern layer feeding. Today’s LTZ layers have to be supplied with optimal nutrients to tap the full their genetic potential for a 90 + weeks production cycle!

After lunch, the geneticist Dr. Matthias Schmutz fascinated the audience with his speech. Using several examples, he illustrated different breeding strategies for the LSL / LB-Converter and pointed out the advantages of the Converter hens as compared to the Classic birds in terms of feed conversion especially for markets which are able to accept a slightly reduced egg size.

After an exciting discussion and the summary of Mr. Börje Hjalmarsson, all participants made their way home in the early evening.
