2016 PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE PENNSYLVANIA FAIRS & TIOGQA COUNTY FAIR ANIMAL HEALTH REQUIREMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXHIBITION, INCLUDING COMMERCIAL EXHIBITION This document provides the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture s animal health requirements and recommendations f the Pennsylvania County and Community Fairs. All exhibits are encouraged to check with the management of each fair in advance to ensure compliance with all fair requirements. It remains our goal to resume poultry exhibitions in 2016. Certainly the U.S. Department of Agriculture s recent confirmation of a new highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) strain in Dubois County, Indiana, is a setback, but we remain optimistic. We will continue to monit repts of avian influenza cases that occur in the United States and put our poultry industry at risk. Our final decision to lift the current ban will be made by June 1, 2016, in cooperation with Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences and will be based on an assessment of risk to Pennsylvania poultry. In the interim, the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture has issued new poultry health requirements f shows, a copy of which is available at www.agriculture.pa.gov. Thank you f your understanding and suppt. The following Animal Owner Caretaker s Verification of Veterinary Consultation Relationship statement f the animals being exhibited must be included with a signature line on the fair registration fm: I attest and affirm that a veterinary consultation relationship as that phrase is defined in the Animal Exhibition Sanitation Law found at 3 Pa.C.S.A. 2501 et seq. and any amendments thereto exists with regard to any animals I will be exhibiting. Animals entering with a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) are exempt from this statement requirement. F specified events at the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex, including the Pennsylvania Farm Show, the Pennsylvania All-American Dairy Show, the Pennsylvania State Juni Dairy Show, the Keystone International Livestock Exposition, the Pennsylvania Fall Holstein Show and the Pennsylvania State 4-H Hse Show, exhibits will need to consult the 2016 show managements requirements. The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture recommends that animals returning home from fairs and shows be isolated from other members of the herd flock f a minimum of three weeks to help prevent the spread of disease, and recommends that exhibits of all animals discuss the health of their animals, including vaccine recommendations, with a veterinarian on a regular basis. The Department also encourages premises owners to register their premises with the Department, so that we can contact you in a disease emergency situation. Call 717-836-3235 to register your premises. Be sure to use only grooming products that are approved f use on meat and dairy animals when fitting your animals f show. Unapproved products may contain ingredients that result in unacceptable residues in the meat milk. If you are not certain that a product is residue safe and approved f use on meat dairy animals, do not use it! ***Imptant!*** If upon slaughter, treatment with drugs, biologics any chemical from fitting products, is the cause of condemnation of a carcass, the loss of the carcass and any other damages will be bne by the exhibit.

Animals should be tied penned in a manner that will not hurt the animal restrict its breathing in any way. 2. Animals should be tied so that all four feet are firmly on the ground and they have enough room to stand comftably and lie down. 3. Animals should be tied so that they are not able to injure animals tied near them. 4. A. Animals unaccustomed to each other should not be penned together. B. Handling - Any type of rough handling which could harm the animal is prohibited. The use of whips, canes, and show sticks should be restricted to showing only and then be used only to guide the animals, not punish them. Remember, animals will respond quicker and better to quiet, gentle handling, than loud, rough handling. C. Bedding - All animals should have bedding that is dry and clean. Pens should be cleaned regularly to keep the animals clean and comftable. If non-traditional bedding such as carpeting is used, it should be regularly cleaned (at least twice daily) to keep the pen free from manure. D. Feed & Water - Animals should be well fed and have access to clean water regularly. Realizing that many market animals must have restricted amounts of feed to maintain the proper weight, animals must be fed adequate amounts of feed to meet the animal s basic requirements. Animals not allowed reasonable access to feed and water will be disqualified from the show. E. Transptation - Animals should be transpted in a way that is both safe and considerate of the animal s well-being. F. Blanket/Sweat Collars - Any type of material such as blankets sweat collars should be large enough to permit nmal body functions such as breathing, eating, drinking lying down. G.
