USDA orders reforms at U.S. Meat Animal Research Center Nebraska
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced no new research projects will start until animal welfare improves through stronger oversight and better training. He also directed updated electronic record keeping to ensure all animals are cared for and monitored at the center in Nebraska amid a January inquiry into livestock conditions. An independent panel found no evidence the IACUC met regularly or that a formal project approval process existed, prompting calls for a single standardized process.
