Rapid detection, reporting and treatment are essential to protecting your flock and preventing further spread.

We were almost cleared of Scrapie

🚨ANIMAL HEALTH ALERT🚨
USDA APHIS confirmed classical scrapie in a sheep slaughtered in a facility in Oregon.

APHIS and state animal health officials recently initiated an investigation to determine the flock of origin. The affected animal did not have an ear tag. This case is a reminder of why tagging compliance and surveillance participation are critical to safeguarding flocks nationwide.

Please read the full ASI press release here: https://champ.ly/XD8kUh9y.
For additional information regarding scrapie, visit: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/livestock-poultry-disease/sheep-goat/scrapie.

ASI will not be monitoring social media comments as the USDA investigation is ongoing.

Does Bale Grazing work? 🤷 This field is depleted soil. It was in corn for 14 consecutive years before planted in hay for 10 years and then pasture for the last few years. You can see where the bales were; lush, green, no/minimal weeds. The surrounding areas are full of Queens Ann Lace, while it is medicinal, doing its job with deep tap roots, and the goats eat it, I prefer not to have a field of it. I know where to bale graze this coming winter 💯🤠
