A Minnesota poultry veterinarian urges Congress to include animal disease prevention provisions in the proposed 2018 Farm Bill. The provisions would create an animal disease response program and strengthen the National Animal Health Laboratory Network, citing the 2015 outbreak that affected more than 100 farms and nearly nine million birds.
This is an advocacy piece on proposed legislation with no immediate supply change. Better disease preparedness would reduce the risk of future poultry supply shocks.
