Checkoff Focuses on Biosecurity for Youth Swine Shows
June 5, 2019 —
The Checkoff staff has formed an interdepartmental team to bring even more easy-to-use biosecurity resources to the youth swine exhibitions this summer. Much of the Checkoff's existing youth-focused resources, including the popular A Champions Guide to Youth Exhibition - will be used in this outreach and awareness program.
New African swine fever-focused items highlighting Checkoff's disease prevention resources are in development, such as this flyer, which highlights key biosecurity steps before, during and after pig shows. Other items include videos, social media graphics and a full expert panel at the upcoming show known as The Exposition, in Des Moines in on June 7.
