National Milk Producer Federation reacts to USDA’s new HPAI management plans

March 03, 2025 01:02 PM

The U.S. dairy industry is reacting positively to USDA’s new HPAI plans.

National Milk Producers Federation President and CEO Greg Doud shared this statement:

“Dairy farmers and cooperatives appreciate USDA’s leadership in supporting American agriculture and safeguarding animal health... Dairy farmers and all of agriculture take biosecurity seriously, and we’re thankful for these actions that will further those efforts.”

The International Dairy Foods Association also applauded the efforts and was especially grateful for the $100 million investment into research on potential HPAI vaccines. The organization’s President and CEO Dr. Michael Dykes is urging the agency to quickly develop and approve effective and safe bovine vaccines to guard cattle against the disease.

Farm Traveler is for people who want to connect with their food and those who grow it.

Live to Farm
Journey into lives of two hard-working farm families to see the risks, rewards, and funny shenanigans that take place every day. From cat-fishing and watermelon smashing and pig chasing and go-cart racing—there is never a dull moment on these family farms. We’ll also get a modern look at the newest cutting-edge farming techniques that are revolutionizing the industry and providing a greener and more sustainable way to grow.
The New Crop
RFD-TV has partnered with a handful of agricultural social media influencers whom we have dubbed The New Crop. These folks have taken to the internet to tell their stories and to raise awareness of where our food comes from and all that goes into feeding the world population.
Where the Food Comes From
The goal of “Where the Food Comes From” is as simple as its name implies — host Chip Carter takes you along on the journey of where our food comes from — and we don’t just mean to the supermarket (though that’s part of the big picture!). But beyond where it comes from, how it gets there, and all the links in the chain that make that happen.
