Join the PA Agriculture HPAI Monthly Call on November 13

Dial-In Details Are Included Below

With HPAI impacting both dairy and poultry farms across the country right now, the Center for Dairy Excellence and Penn Ag Industries Association will host a new, joint monthly Pennsylvania Agriculture HPAI Conference Call starting on Wednesday, November 13 at 1 p.m. EST for farmers and industry stakeholders across all animal agriculture in Pennsylvania. This new combined call aims to provide updates on the rapidly evolving animal health situation concerning highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) affecting farms across the United States. With the HPAI situation in California ever evolving and affecting both dairy and poultry farms, it is important for both industries to join the calls to receive the latest information, updates, and learn about steps we can take to remain proactive about protecting our herds and flocks.

During the November 13 call, panelists from the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and other state/federal organizations will share updates on the HPAI health situation, Pennsylvania’s response efforts, and what it means for farms. The panelists will share:

• Updates from the PA Department of Agriculture on HPAI, Voluntary Surveillance, and being proactive in our response
• Updates on federal testing requirements and programs
• Updates from PA Department of Health on personal protective equipment (PPE) assistance programs

You’ll be able to ask questions in real time about the disease, transmission, the latest updates on what it means for Pennsylvania agriculture, and how to incorporate good biosecurity protocols across the industries.

Note: The USDA has confirmed that there is no threat to human health and milk. Dairy products continue to remain safe to consume.
