Oh dear - stay vigilant our German friends, and British visitors: leave your boots and overalls in Germany!

WOAH acknowledges ’s rapid official notification of an outbreak of Foot and Mouth Disease ( ) marking the disease's first occurrence in the country since 1988.

While the FMD virus is not considered a public health problem, it's crucial for animal health due to its easy transmission and the significant economic impact it can have. Germany has already been putting containment measures in place. Early detection and rapid response are critical to contain any outbreak.

We are fully committed to supporting our Members to prevent and rapidly respond to the risk associated with FMD, along with our partners and network of reference laboratories.

Learn more about FMD and its prevention measures here: https://www.woah.org/en/disease/foot-and-mouth-disease/ -id-3 and follow the latest evolution here https://wahis.woah.org/ #/in-event/6177/dashboard

Thank you to all our clients for your continued support, we look forward to what the next year will bring!

Well done everyone involved! Especially Lleyn Sheep Society and Exlana Sheep by the looks of things.

The number of Serum IgA records used in UK sheep evaluations exceeding 20,000 animals in 2024. Incredible growth in a trait that wasn’t being measured in sheep flocks until 2019.

Some people talk about radiator vs drain personalities. I’d say this lad probably falls into the first camp.

There’s something infectious about a person who clearly loves what they do - even if that love is for slurry! 💩
