Missouri appears to be way behind the curve on the NAIS movement. I have been to a meeting, but poultry seems to be last on the list.
One interesting point made at the meeting I was at was that having a mandatory system is really not a marketing benefit in the long run because producers who can produce the origins, ect. of the livestock are currently getting better prices than those that don\'t.
Us poultry folks in Missouri are pushing for NPIP to be the standard for poultry.
