Cisneros, Juan (Jose) Jose

Description:

Four agricultural professionals came to North Carolina from September 12 – 25, 2017 and participated in the USDA-FAS Cochran Fellowship Program on Feed Formulation for Poultry Industry at NC State in Raleigh. This training program was planned by CALS Global Academy and was carried out with the cooperation of many different partners at NC State and within the state. Some of the highlights of this training program were visits to: Premex, Coker Feed Mill, Case Farms Calypso Feed Mill, and the NCSU Feed Mill. The Fellows learned about importing U.S. grains from the NCDA&CS International Trade Office and from the North Carolina Small Grain Growers Association. The Fellows spent many hours with Edgar Oviedo, Peter Ferket, and Adam Fahrenholz learning about best feed formulation practices.
