Veterinary Feed Directive Webinar

The new Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD) regulation from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) marks a major change for the livestock industry. Veterinarians will soon have increased responsibility for prescribing antimicrobials in feed and water — and the roles for producers, nutritionists and feed suppliers also will change.
 
Led by several industry experts and brought to you by Zoetis, this interactive webinar will examine the VFD regulation, including roles and responsibilities, timing and requirements. Do you have questions about the VFD? You’ll have the opportunity to ask the experts after the presentation.

  2. Veterinarians who help livestock clients manage disease through use of antimicrobials
  3. Nutritionists who help livestock clients formulate and balance rations
  4. Feed suppliers who manufacture complete feeds, minerals and/or supplements for livestock producers
What you will learn:
