Biosecurity Basics for Livestock
Producers Conference
February 16, 26, 27 • March 9, 16
Come and learn about the importance of
biosecurity on your livestock operation
Topics & Speakers:
Biosecurity at the Producer Level
Dr. Patrick Webb, DVM, National Pork Board
Incident Command and an
Animal Disease Disaster
Bruce Spence, Training with Toys
Attend a Biosecurity Meeting
Why is this important?
n the state of Iowa, the livestock industry
is a multi billion dollar industry. The beef
and pork industry collectively provide over
100,000 jobs and a total economic activity of
over $17 billion. The thought of losing this
industry to an agroterrorism event should
provide enough incentive for every producer
across the state to implement a biosecurity
plan on their operation.
I
What am I to expect from the meetings?
• Come and learn about the importance of biosecurity on your
livestock operation
• Hands-on activities using a table top community setup
• Learn what would happen locally in the event of an
outbreak of a highly contagious animal disease, such as
Foot and Mouth Disease
34
IPP/JANUARY 2007
An outbreak of foot-andmouth disease, which
affects both cattle and
swine, would represent
about $65 billion worth
of potential lost value
to U.S. producers…the
fact that a single determined individual or
small group could bring
all U.S. beef or pork
exports to a halt, underscores the need for
increased defense
against this threat.
There is no cost to attend the
meeting! We encourage you to
pre-register by calling 515-225-5431.
