African Swine Fever Virus Transmission Risk Through Feed in the U.S. with Dr. Cassie Jones
About the Webinar.
Please join us Wednesday, December 22nd at 9:00am (CST) for our "Future of Feeding" webinar series! This webinar series focuses on using innovation in the processing of animal food, the equipment being used (existing and newly developed), as well as using grains from our region for co-products. A new speaker will be featured each month.
This month will feature Dr. Cassie Jones, Professor and Teaching Coordinator in the Department of Animal Sciences & Industry at Kansas State University. Some key topics that will be discussed during her hour-long webinar include:
The feed supply chain is not the most likely route of viral entry into animals, but it can quickly spread disease.
We all play a role in preventing pathogen entry and spread. Do your part!
Exclude high risk ingredients
Implement feed mill biosecurity
Consider taking steps to further minimize risk of disease survival and infectivity with active mitigation
So, mark your calendars! You wont want to miss this webinar!
