The North Dakota State Board of Animal Health has amended its policy for the suspension of poultry and bird events. Effective immediately, poultry and bird shows, sales and swaps will be prohibited only in the effected county when Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza is detected. The suspension will be extended to an adjoining county if the case is within the control zone. Ag Commissioner Doug Goehring applauded the board for balancing the needs of commerce while protecting producers. There are currently no HPAI cases in the state.
