ALMDA Applauds USDA/APHIS Announcement of Quarterly Reviews of the New World Screwworm Response Playbook

ALMDA applauds the announcement made by USDA/APHIS on the announcement of the quarterly review of the New World Screwworm Response Playbook. As we’ve experienced first hand the impact that the response has had on our member markets in Texas, the ability to make changes to the playbook will be critical to the effectiveness in responding to this pest. ALMDA will be participating in these review sessions.

ALMDA submitted our recommendations to USDA at the beginning of this month, providing recommendations that would be greatly beneficial to the markets, dealers and producers. Our recommendations can be viewed by clicking here.
