An interactive webinar to help the poultry and livestock industries understand the FDA’s new rules for the Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD) has been set for Wednesday, June 17, at 2 pm EDT.
Key players in the VFD process — veterinarians, nutritionists, feed-mill managers and live-production managers — are encouraged to attend this informative session.
The webinar will be led by two regulatory experts:
- Paul Ruen, DVM, a practicing veterinarian in Minnesota who serves on the AVMA Steering Committee for FDA Policy on Veterinary Oversight of Antimicrobials

The 1-hour session will examine the VFD regulation, including roles, responsibilities, timing and requirements, and include a Q&A session for participants. Veterinarians representing the poultry and livestock industries will be on hand to assist with he Q&A.
The webinar will be moderated by John Maday, an editor with Vance Publishing, which is hosting the webinar. The event is sponsored by Zoetis.
