Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins is on the road in Mississippi today and just made a big announcement at Mississippi State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine.
Rollins unveiled USDA’s new Rural Veterinary Shortage Action Plan (PDF) along with Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, Mississippi Farm Bureau’s Mike McCormick, and MSU President Mark Keenum.
It aims to expand grants and financial assistance, streamline loan applications, invest in research, and recruit more students from rural America into veterinary schools, all to support veterinarians and protect livestock health across rural communities.
