State Ag Departments Tackle Labor, PFAS & Bird Flu
Manage episode 418039881 series 2908402
The National Association of State Departments of Agriculture or NASDA represents the ag departments in all 50 states and four U.S. territories. RJ Karney is the senior director of public policy for the NASDA. He says the Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza outbreak in dairy cattle is taking top priority. But NASDA's attention doesn't stop at animal disease. The association is also addressing human and environmental health impacts of PFAS. PFAS are known as forever chemicals. These are substances that have been used in consumer products, like firefighting foam and nonstick cookware since the 1950s. Karney gives us an update on NASDA’s role in eliminating PFAS. Keeping the farm healthy also includes an adequate labor market. Karney says just like the agriculture industry, NASDA is sounding the alarm on the farm worker shortage.
