Livestock Producers: Please Share!
Massachusetts Livestock producers, please take a moment to help the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) understand your experience accessing livestock slaughter and processing services. DPH is conducting a study of livestock slaughtering and processing options for geographically isolated and rural communities. The Eastern Research Group, Inc.(ERG), a consulting firm based in Concord, is working under contract with DPH to interview stakeholders and prepare a report evaluating options to address current constraints. ERG is seeking input from as many livestock producers as possible to inform the study. If you have not already provided your input, please take a moment to complete this 5–10 minute survey and provide any additional comments that you believe would be helpful in this effort. Please send feedback by June 16th.
If you have any questions about the survey, please email Janet Carpenter, and if you have any questions about the ERG contract supporting this study, please email Michael Moore.
