TB Plan Review in-person meetings

New Zealand has made great progress in reducing the impact of TB but there’s more to do to finish the job. Livestock freedom from TB is within our sights, with around 15 herds infected – that’s about  0.01 percent of the total number of herds. 

But it’s not possible to achieve or maintain the milestone of zero infections by 2026 while the disease remains in possums.  The milestone of zero infections by 2026 cannot be achieved while the disease remains in possums. The TB Plan Review proposes an increased focus on tackling the remaining infected possum hot spots to achieve TB freedom in both livestock and possums by 2040.

There will be opportunities for farmers to learn more about the plan at a series of in-person meetings across the country.
