Risk Assessments
Risk assessments (RA) support managed movement and permitting of animals and animal products during disease outbreaks.
University of Minnesota staff and individuals at the USDA-APHIS-VS Centers for Epidemiology and Animal Health continue to work on proactive risk assessments. The following risk assessments have been completed.
- RTE Risk Assessment Fact Sheet – Preslaughter Transfer of Animals
- FMDv Survival in Pork Products-Visual Guide
- FMDv Survival in Fresh Pork Meat- Information Sheet
All four ready-to-eat pork product documents are available on the UMN digital conservancy website.
