• The state of Iowa remains at Stage 5 status for psuedorabies (PRV).
• Iowa state veterinarian John Schiltz announces the 2006 Iowa health requirements for exhibiting livestock, poultry and birds at state, district and county 4-H/FFA fairs. The Iowa exhibition rules are substantially the same rules as those for 2005. Remember that the 30-day quarantine and testing rule is still in place for this year. See pages 3 and 6 for more information.
