SPECIAL REPORT: What can be done to minimize risk of African swine fever?

African swine fever has been on everyone’s mind for several years
now, and more recently with cases of ASF being confirmed in the
Dominican Republic and Haiti, it is definitely a topic of
conversation for pork producers throughout North
America. 

While no cases of ASF have been confirmed in the U.S., it is
important for all of us to come together and do what we can to
prevent ASF from reaching our shores. In this special Feedstuffs
Precision Pork podcast, we explore some tools and programs out
there that will allow you to plan and take action. 

Joining us for this discussion are Mark Hullsabus and Dr. Jason
Hoocker. Mark is the commercial director of pork for Cargill.
Prior to joining Cargill, he was part of the leadership team at
TriOak Foods. Jason is a swine veterinarian with
AMVC.
