H5N1 | National Milk Producers Federation talks H5N1 security

Whether you call it H5N1, HPAI, or Bird Flu; the fact of the matter remains that we have an issue on our hands that is testing the resolve of our animal disease contingency plans on a minor level.

Whether you call it H5N1, HPAI, or Bird Flu; the fact of the matter remains that we have an issue on our hands that is testing the resolve of our animal disease contingency plans on a minor level. We talked for years about “what if?”, and we were presented with that scenario the first time bird flu crossed to a dairy cow.

The National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF) has a plan in place to get us through this situation without any risk to consumers and their dairy products. It is called the Farmers Assuring Responsible Management (FARM) Program. Emily Yeiser-Stepp of NMPF talks about how important it is to have these biosecurity measures in place.
