Avian Influenza numbers continue to increase

The number of Avian Influenza cases in Western Canada continues to climb.

The risk for avian influenza increases during spring and fall with wild bird migration 

Stats from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency website show they've seen a number of active outbreaks of the highly pathogenic avian influenza being reported this fall.

HPAI IS NOT A  food safety concern.

There is no evidence to suggest that eating cooked poultry or eggs could transmit HPAI to humans.

Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. We also have a part-time employee, Brock. My dad started the farm in 1980. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.

I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.

I hope you enjoy my content and ask questions as you have them. I do my best to answer anything I can. Thanks for watching!
