From next Wednesday, animal disease management service OSPRI will handle on the ground operations — with MPI maintaining non-operational aspects.

OSPRI will take over testing for M.bovis on farms, as well as containment, disinfection and supporting farmers.

He says it’s already been testing for bovine TB, and a lot of MPI bovis eradication staff are transferring to OSPRI.
