Examining the issues of importance to animals, humans and the environment to help those across the food production system better understand the issues from a science-based perspective.
IICA builds One Health solutions through trade standards and policy
A single pest can shut a border. A single disease can wipe out herds and destabilize prices. So how do 34 countries across the Americas coordinate fast enough to protect food security, animal health, and human nutrition while still keeping trade moving? We sit down with Lloyd Day, Deputy Director General of the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), to unpack how regional cooperation actually works when the stakes are high. We talk through IICA’s unique role as...

How ASEAN trade pressure is rewriting animal health policy
One Health sounds simple until you try to run it across 11 countries, multiple ministries, and a food system that feeds a huge share of the planet. We sit down with Pushpanathan Sundram (Nathan), CEO of PublicPolicyAsia Advisors and former ASEAN deputy secretary general, to unpack why Asia’s One Health challenge has shifted from awareness to governance, financing, and real implementation. When half of humanity lives in the region and Asia dominates global aquaculture and livestock numbers, we...

'Forever chemicals' create supply chain concern
"Forever chemicals" are not just a headline, they are a supply chain problem. We sit down with Dr Jerry Shurson from the University of Minnesota to trace how PFAS contamination can start in everyday products and industrial uses, then travel through air and drinking water into soil, crops, livestock feed, and the food we rely on. We break down what PFAS are, why they persist for so long, and why scientists struggle to answer the question everyone asks: “What, if any, level is safe?” Wi...

Red meat and global nutrition
Anemia, food security, sustainability, trade, and the future of protein are not separate conversations. They collide at the dinner plate, especially in countries where nutrition is not guaranteed and where families buy what is affordable, not what is trendy. We sit down with Dan Halstrom, President and CEO of the U.S. Meat Export Federation, to get specific about what beef, pork, and lamb contribute to human health and why education around nutrient density still matters. We talk about comple...

Shaping the poultry industry's next chapter
The ground beneath global poultry is shifting, and not just inside the barn. Fresh from the International Poultry Council meeting in Atlanta, we unpack how geopolitical tension, a fragmenting trade order, and transboundary diseases like avian influenza are rewriting the playbook for a sector that feeds billions. Joined by Richard Griffiths, CEO of the British Poultry Council and new IPC president, we explore what leadership looks like when the old rules no longer guarantee market access, pred...

Breaking the lice lifecycle: Timing, treatment and total coverage
Winter arrives, coats thicken, and lice populations tend to explode—quietly cutting gains, damaging hides, and even causing anemia. We sit down with Thach Winslow DVM, a veteran beef cattle veterinarian and technical consultant, to map out a clear, workable plan for winter lice control that protects herd health and the bottom line. We start by breaking down how lice survive summer heat in protected areas and why they surge as cattle “hair up.” Dr. Winslow explains the difference between chew...

Rethinking Avian Influenza risk: From biosecurity to vaccination and fair trade
Hunger rises fastest when good intentions collide with bad rules. We sit down with Brazil’s poultry leader, Ricardo Santin, to unpack how a country at the heart of global protein supplies is navigating animal diseases, as avian influenza; biosecurity; vaccination, and fair trade—without pricing families out of a meal. Ricardo shares data on Brazil’s production scale in chicken, pork, and eggs, then walks us through the real-world costs of blanket trade bans. The science is clear: properly han...

Smart preweaning, conditioning gets calves off to right start
Calves don’t read the playbook, so we wrote one that actually works on the ground. We brought in Dr. Jeremi Wurtz, a beef cattle technical consultant and veterinarian with Elanco, to map out a clean, science-first path from the first sip of colostrum to a calm, productive post‑weaning period. The focus is simple: reduce stress, build immunity, and protect gains with choices that pay back in healthier calves and better margins. We start where lifetime health really begins—colostrum. You’ll he...

One Health: Stronger herds, safer world
Disease keeps moving faster than our systems, but prevention can win if we line up science, policy, and delivery. We sit down with HealthforAnimals’ executive director Carel du Marchie Sarvaas to unpack what the global animal health industry is seeing on the front lines—from avian influenza behaving like an annual wrecking ball to the quiet progress of antimicrobial stewardship that rarely makes headlines. The throughline is simple and urgent: healthier herds and flocks mean steadier food sup...

Weaning time: Managing endotoxin load for better calf health
Ever wonder why calves struggle a bit after vaccination? The culprit might be hidden in plain sight: endotoxin load. Dr. Brett Terhaar, Beef Technical Consultant with Elanco Animal Health, dives deep into this often-overlooked aspect of cattle vaccination protocols. He explains that gram-negative bacterial vaccines—those used for respiratory diseases, pinkeye, and other common cattle ailments—naturally contain endotoxins that signal the immune system. While some immune stimulation is necessa...

The vaccine dilemma: Tackling avian influenza on a global basis
Avian influenza has become endemic worldwide, threatening poultry production, food security, and potentially human health. While biosecurity remains essential, vaccination offers a powerful complementary tool that deserves serious consideration. Birthe Steenberg, CEO of AVEC (European Poultry Association), brings remarkable insights from Europe's pioneering vaccination efforts. She highlights France's groundbreaking program that vaccinated over 60 million ducks and achieved a stunning 90% re...

Dairy to poultry: Tracking avian influenza's path
Untangling the mysterious transmission of avian influenza between dairy cattle and poultry stands as one of today's most pressing One Health challenges. Two researchers from The Ohio State University, Dr. Scott Kenney and PhD candidate Carolyn Lee, take us deep into their research in this area. Their research reveals that just 10 viral particles can establish an infection in dairy cattle, multiplying to 700 billion particles in milk within mere days. As Dr. Kenney explains, a single infected...
