New: USDA APHIS NADPRP Project: Enhancing On-Farm Biosecurity Outreach Education
We are excited that we have a newly funded project by USDA, which is for March 1, 2021 - February 28, 2023. Faculty members included Ray Massey, Joseph Zulovich, Corinne Bromfield, Craig Payne, and PI Teng Lim. University of Missouri Extension will develop a mobile educational trailer for biosecurity and emergency management outreach and demonstrate on-farm mortality composting. Project includes workshops and webinars to educate and motivate producers to improve biosecurity protocols; it expands on successful work developed by UM Extension, MO Dept of Agriculture and Department of Resources, USDA APHIS, and USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service.

Biosecurity Checklist and Important Contact Information
Biosecurity Checklist and Important Contact Information
Every few months, employee(s) should revisit their biosecurity protocols and make changes if needed. A laminated checklist was made available for that purpose. It is good record keeping to save completed forms for follow-up, future reference, and inspections. Additional copies or electronic version of this form can be obtained by contacting MU Agricultural Engineering Extension, 573-882-0085.
