Hear from CSU Veterinary Extension Specialist Ragan Adams and College of Agricultural Sciences Associate Professor Jennifer Martin on the threat of African Swine Fever and CSU’s role in combating it.
Faced with disease threats to U.S. agriculture, land-grant universities such as Colorado State University must provide a first line of defense to protect public health, economic and national security and the livelihood of farm communities.
A Colorado State University veterinary student has created a mobile-friendly website featuring biosecurity resources for limiting risks of infectious disease at equine facilities.
VIDEO: "Food safety is a huge thing in the United States and we're lucky to have a safe food system. There are no birds going into the supply chain that are positive for HPAI." -Dr. Ragan Adams
"Influenza viruses are really smart viruses because their reservoir are wild birds and wild birds move all across the globe.” -Dr. Kristy Pabilonia, director of clinical diagnostics for the CSU Veterinary Health System
“Colorado poultry owners should immediately increase their biosecurity protocols to protect their flocks, including limiting exposure of domestic birds to wild birds and other poultry flocks and limiting introduction of new birds into flocks.” -Dr. Maggie Baldwin, Colorado State Veterinarian
Wildfire, flood, agriculture and insurance experts will discuss recovery and increased flood risk.
