Antibiotic Law Changes

Author: T. Adam Probst

Planning Unit: Woodford County CES

Major Program: Beef

Plan of Work: Sustainable Agriculture

Outcome: Initial Outcome

With recent law changes regarding the sale of antibiotics for livestock production, the Woodford and Fayette County Extension Services partnered with a local veterinarian to lead an informational session for producers regarding the changes.  After listening to the law changes, fifty-eight producers were able to effectively interact with multiple veterinarians  to ask specific questions regarding their operations and how the new ruling will affect them.  After hearing from multiple veterinarians, each producer was able to walk away from that meeting with a plan in place to continue treating livestock in their operation without interuption.
