MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 10,1984 7:00 P.M. Muhlenberg High School Laureldale, along Rt. 222 & Kutztown Rd. above Reading FREE PUBLIC FORUM IS OUR AMERICAN FOOD PRODUCTION SYSTEM AND OUR FREEDOM IN JEOPARDY? Other Participants Include: Herb Jordan - Penn State Extension Poultry Specialist John Hoffman - Pennsylvania Poultry Federation Jane Balmer - Lancaster County Poultry/Dairy Farmer John Albright -- New Environmental Technologies Berks County witnessed the climax to the government’s effort to control the most costly animal disease epidemic in our history ($65 million). Are there some serious flaws in our animal confinement/food production system that could threaten our future abundant food supplies? Did the USDA Task Force program of depopulation and cleanup really get at the primary cause of the epidemic? How can we avoid further loss of personal freedom from government “crisis” intervention? Important but unreported information relating to the AI epidemic will be covered. Anyone in animal husbandry will find this meeting very in teresting. Video tapes of meeting will be available.
