Research grants to protect poultry farms

If enacted, the bill would make highly pathogenic avian influenza a high priority for research and farm outreach. The government would be able to award grants to land-grant colleges and universities. Funds would support better poultry vaccines, including tests across bird species, improved formulas, new delivery methods, and study market and trade impacts. Grants would also improve farm biosecurity through training, on-farm steps, and new ways to disinfect. This could help poultry producers cut losses and protect markets; no funding amount is specified.
