The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service will no longer require the condemnation of poultry carcasses affected with one or more forms of the avian leukosis complex.
These actions follow APHIS' imposition of HPAI-related restrictions on the importation of avian commodities originating from or transiting Gabon, Guinea and Moldova.
USDA recently held a stakeholder roundtable with poultry industry leaders and state government officials to discuss the current and future HPAI strategy and opportunities for continued collaboration.
