The chief ag negotiator in the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative says the outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in U.S. dairy cattle hasn’t caused global trade disruptions.
Doug McKalip says that’s because U.S. milk is pasteurized.
“It’s been a key part of our conversations with trading partners to minimize backlash on dairy.”
McKalip says the administration will be engaged with the beef industry on any next steps if necessary and the goal is to let science prevail.
