http://www.aphis.usda.gov/vs/npip/ This is the website to the National Poultry Improvement Plan(NPIP). I have argued for years that producers should belong
to the NPIP. The cost is miniscule. In return you are listed in the annual directory, usually published in February. Belonging
to NPIP indicates to your customers your birds are free of certain diseases. It indicates your commitment to producing quality
birds. Likewise, you should purchase birds only from NPIP certified producers.
