The Swine Health Information Center, FFAR, and the National Pork Board funded five research projects to improve preparedness for H5N1 in U.S. swine production. The work will examine early detection, transmission pathways, wildlife interactions, pork-processing safety, and how other swine infections may affect disease outcomes.
The projects address a potential disease risk to U.S. hog production, but they are research investments rather than evidence of an active outbreak or current supply loss. No immediate price effect is indicated.
