Poultry producers can learn more about improving biosecurity against wildlife-borne diseases. USPOULTRY is hosting the webinar “ON-Farm Waterfowl Mitigation Practices” on Wednesday, May 13, from 1 – 2:15 p.m. EDT.

The webinar will feature Shannon Chandler, wildlife disease biologist, and Clint Turnage, wildlife disease biologist, both from USDA-APHIS Wildlife Services. Both specialize in disease surveillance pertaining to avian influenza, along with other areas such as plaque & tularemia, feral swine diseases, chronic wasting disease, E. coli, rabies, raccoon roundworm and canine parvovirus.

The “ON-Farm Waterfowl Mitigation Practices” webinar will discuss how producers can reduce congregations of wild birds (mainly waterfowl) on farm premises and methods that farmers can implement to help make farms unattractive to the wild birds.

There will be a Q&A session at the end of the program. Registration and more information is available here.
