FORT COLLINS, Colo. — The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Animal Health Monitoring System released the first report from its Equine 2015 study, Baseline Reference of Equine Health and Management in the United States, 2015. The Equine 2015 study is National Animal Health Monitoring System’s third national study of the U.S. equine industry. As with National Animal Health Monitoring System’s 1998 and 2005 equine studies, Equine 2015 was designed to provide participants, industry and animal-health officials with information on the nation’s equine population. The information will serve as a basis for education, service and research, while providing the industry with new and valuable information regarding trends in the industry for 1998, 2005 and 2015.
