The Farm, Food and National Security Act passed with a bipartisan vote this morning in the House of Representatives — a major step forward for America’s turkey producers 🦃

HPAI is a global animal health challenge, and the U.S. has the experience and opportunity to lead as a model for others. Read Dr. Lindy Froebel’s latest op-ed in Agri-Pulse Communications, Inc. on expanding the toolkit and advancing real solutions. 🦃🌎https://loom.ly/vdonVXQ

Lindy Froebel of the National Turkey Federation says the industry has strengthened biosecurity, surveillance and coordination with USDA, but the persistence of HPAI shows that the U.S. will need to expand science‑based tools to stay ahead of the virus.

During a panel today at the Expana Executive Conference, NTF's Dr. Lindy Froebel discussed how the turkey industry is navigating a changing animal health landscape, including HPAI and avian metapneumovirus. 🧫🔬

Today’s challenges continue to evolve, and getting ahead will require expanding the tools available, embracing innovation and making practical, science driven decisions that support long term stability.

We appreciate Congresswoman Michelle Fischbach for her strong support of the American turkey industry during today’s Ways and Means Committee hearing with Ambassador Jamieson Greer! 🦃

Ensuring parity with Canada’s TRQs is a priority for our industry, and it’s critical to securing fair, predictable access under the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement. We’re grateful to see the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative engaging on this issue as part of the USMCA review and stand ready to work with them to achieve fair trade.

Earlier today, NTF submitted comments to U.S. Department of Agriculture FSIS on an important rulemaking concerning line speeds for poultry establishments (including turkey processing establishments) operating under the New Poultry Inspection System. It’s great to see the agency recognize the progress being made in food safety and processing — helping the industry maintain high standards while operating more efficiently. This data-driven decision will support the industry while ensuring that food safety, animal welfare and worker safety are not compromised.
