Managing Egg Production From 40 Million Birds to Off-Grid Farms with Bruce Dooyema

from Eggheads · host Eggheads Media LLC

Bruce Dooyema's career in poultry began in the 7th grade, when his parents bought him a dozen chickens to raise in the backyard. Now, as Director of Strategic projects at Versova, he's responsible for around 40 million of them. And as if that wasn't enough responsibility, Bruce serves as President of the International Egg Foundation, where he helps establish layer operations in countries struggling with food insecurity. Today, Bruce walks us through what goes into managing 40 million birds, especially in a time where even the best laid plans can be entirely upended by HPAI. He also discusses his work with the the IEF, and the incredible impact they're having across the developing world.
