The “Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza – Lessons Learned” program, sponsored by the United Egg Producers and U.S. Poultry & Egg Association and held in conjunction with the International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE), will provide a valuable opportunity to learn about the recent outbreak of avian influenza in the United States from people who were actively involved in controlling the disease. Speakers will include experts from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, as well as veterinarians from layer and turkey companies that were involved in the outbreak.
Topics will include details on the factors that contributed to the spread of the virus and the efforts to develop vaccines for potential use in any future eradication efforts. Representatives of the commercial egg and turkey industries will provide valuable insight into the efforts required to control and eradicate the disease and give the audience an understanding of the challenges this disease provided to the commercial companies involved.
Registration for the program is $100 for registered IPPE attendees. For the full agenda, click here. IPPE is expected to attract more than 28,000 attendees and is a collaboration of three trade shows— International Feed Expo, International Poultry Expo and International Meat Expo—representing the entire chain of protein production and processing. The event is sponsored by the American Feed Industry Association, U.S. Poultry & Egg Association and the North American Meat Institute.
