Cattle Industry News: Avian Flu Update, Livestock Indemnity Payments, Cultivated Meat

Influenza Sweeps Through Northwest Iowa Dairy Cattle

According to MeatingPlace.com, following Iowa’s first positive case of HPAI, Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, in dairy cattle in early June, Iowa has reported four new cases in its northwest region. According to the Iowa Department of Agriculture & Land Stewardship, influenza was detected in three dairy cattle herds in Sioux County and one in neighboring Plymouth County. Both northwest counties border O’Brien County, where Iowa’s first dairy cattle influenza case was reported June 6. At the time, Iowa was the 10th state to confirm HPAI in dairy cows. The nationwide outbreak of the avian virus in dairy has struck nearly 100 herds across 12 states.

Bills Introduced To Help Unborn Livestock Losses

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz and U.S. Rep. Ronny Jackson introduced the Livestock Indemnity Program Enhancement Act to help Texas livestock producers recover from the devastating wildfires that occurred in the Texas Panhandle earlier this year. This bill would require the U.S. Department of Agriculture to establish an additional payment rate through the Livestock Indemnity Program for excessive unborn livestock death losses, according to the Texas Cattle Feeders Association.

Cattlemen Take Aim At Government Investment In The Cultivated Space

The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) issued a statement condemning a Department of Defense-sponsored research grant that will fund the development of cell-cultivated meat products by manufacturing company BioMADE.

NCBA Vice President of Government Affairs Ethan Lane said, “It is outrageous that the Department of Defense is spending millions of taxpayer dollars to feed our heroes like lab rats. U.S. cattle producers raise the highest-quality beef in the world, with the lowest carbon footprint — and American troops deserve to be served that same wholesome, natural meat and not ultra-processed, lab-grown protein that is cooked up in a chemical-filled bioreactor”. He went on to say “This misguided research project is a giant slap in the face to everyone that has served our country. Our veterans and active-duty troops deserve so much better than this.”

BioMADE is described as a public-private bio-manufacturing consortium sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense.
