January 30 is the deadline for dairy farmers with milk losses due to the H5N1 virus. Farm Service Agency Assistant Deputy Administrator Kimberly Graham says this is through the ELAP or Emergency Livestock, Honeybees, and Farm-Raised Fish Program. “In July of 2024, we made policy changes that allowed ELAP to also assist dairy producers who had incurred milk losses resulting from reduced milk production when cattle were removed from their commercial dairy herds that tested positive for H5N1.”
