Cherry Valley At ILDEX Vietnam 2018
Cherry Valley announced their intention to locally produce parent stock through ILDEX Vietnam and two seminars hosted by two of Vietnam’s top agricultural universities. ILDEX Vietnam attracts visitors from all over the world but it was domestic visitors that were of particular interest.
The Cherry Valley team, which consisted of Malcolm Stimpson, Boh Kee Yook and Bing Yan worked with the Haida team in Vietnam, led by Mr Quan Wei Bing for the exhibition. The event allowed the team to engage with local livestock producers about Cherry Valley parent stock being domestically produced. This created both intrigue and excitement about being able to buy locally produced breeding stock directly from the world’s leading duck breeder.
Seminars were also hosted in conjunction with Haida Feed and Prof. Bui Huu Doan and Prof Vu Dinh Ton from two of Vietnam’s most prestigious agricultural universities, Vietnam National University of Agriculture and Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry. Seminar topics included the Vietnamese and world market for ducks, genetic selection in the Cherry Valley breeding programme and performance potential of the SM3 compared to other breeds given by our very own Dr Anne Rae and Malcolm Stimpson.
The very first Cherry Valley scholarship was handed out by Dr Anne Rae to the three best performing students at Vietnam National University of Agriculture. The first three recipients were Nguyen Thai Anh, Lam Thi Quyen and Doa Trong Nghia.
Cherry Valley At VIV Russia 2017
This year VIV Russia saw another successful turnout, granting Cherry Valley Farms the opportunity to meet producers and customers from around the world. The event hosted attendees from across the globe, with many people travelling from other CIS countries and beyond to explore what VIV Russia had to offer.
While many attendees showed interest in the likes of dairy and cattle trade, the main focus was on the poultry world, allowing the Cherry Valley team to talk to a number of customers, other traders and intrigued visitors about what it means to be the world’s number one breeder of Pekin ducks. Trending topics included new egg processing technology, feed distribution techniques and the health of layer birds.
Cherry Valley was able to meet with new contacts and existing customers, including Larisa Kornilova and Alexander Sokhinov from Donstar.

The event brings together all aspects of animal production and attracts technicians and business people from all around South East Asia.

The Cherry Valley team was very pleased to welcome many of our customers from around the region, to have the opportunity to meet some interesting new people and catch up with old friends. The talk was of the challenges posed by avian influenza outbreaks in Europe, but support for Cherry Valley’s breeding ducks was firm and everyone looked forward to a return to business as usual.
