Mike Mitchell, North American poultry director, announced that Don McIntyre will expand his leadership role as director, North America Poultry Research, leading the Diamond V research program in North America.
Mitchell also announced that David Kenyon is now business manager, Layers & Turkeys. Kenyon joined Diamond V in April 2013. “David has been instrumental in our growth,” Mitchell said, “and his leadership experience will be a tremendous asset.”
