African Swine Fever (ASF) Action Week took place September 13-17. Our goal in hosting Action Week was to bring attention to the importance of ASF planning and prevention and highlight the extensive work being done by USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service as well as our state partners and industry to keep the disease out of the United States. We hope the webinars and other resources we shared over the course of last week provided practical information to help you better protect the health of your herd.
