News
As spring approaches, the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) continues to provide event organizers with online resources. The DATCP event organizer webpage offers guidance to help ensure biosecurity and successful event planning. It is important to be aware of the risk of disease transmission when moving animals, as transporting them can spread infectious diseases and impact animal health. Adhering to biosecurity measures and proper protocols is crucial in minimizing these risks and protecting both livestock and public health. Access the DATCP webpage for event organizers.
