Discovery and Genetic Innovation.

Advancing genetic progress.

Harnessing technology to shape the future.
From artificial intelligence to robotics and automation, we’re at the forefront of integrating cutting-edge technology and innovation. We use these advancements to collect and manage critical data, optimize processes and ensure we’re delivering the best solutions for our customers.
Key Areas of Innovation
  • 01 Artificial Intelligence
    genetics
    Optimizing processes and predictions for superior outcomes.
    At Cobb, we use artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance poultry production, from breeder selection to broiler management. AI helps us predict outcomes, identify trends and respond effectively to dynamic industry demands. This technology helps streamline health management and welfare monitoring, leading to healthier, higher-quality birds. For our customers, this helps ensure consistency and provides valuable data for better informed business decisions. We are committed to harnessing AI to drive efficiency and deliver the insights our customers need to succeed.
  • 02 Data Systems Collection and Management
