"Data and digital products and services are increasingly important for the animal health industry" - Dawn Howard, NOAH.
The firm provides data and digital products for the animal health industry.

The National Office of Animal Health (NOAH) has welcomed Proagrica Animal Health as an associate member.

Proagrica Animal Health provides digital and data products and services to the veterinary, agriculture and animal health industries. With more than 25 years of experience, the company has offices in Portsmouth, Sutton and central London.

NOAH chief executive Dawn Howard commented: “We are delighted to welcome Proagrica Animal Health to NOAH and look forward to working with them. 

"Data and digital products and services are increasingly important for the animal health industry, from the need for greater efficiencies to improve productivity and sustainability, through to the demand for increased traceability of the food we eat." 

She added: “The UK animal health and medicines industry is high-value, high-growth, high-skilled and invaluable to the UK’s fast-developing life sciences sector.”

Richard Sibbit, managing director of Proagrica Animal Health, said: “We have joined NOAH to understand the challenges of the animal health industry so that we can help address some of them.

"We believe NOAH will also provide a great networking opportunity with the aim to raise the visibility of Proagrica and to connect to others within the industry. We are looking to get fully involved and provide a ‘digital voice’ to relevant sub-committees.”

BVA urges 'continued vigilance' over bluetongue

The British Veterinary Association (BVA) has urged vigilance following a concerning rise in Bluetongue (BTV) cases in sheep and cattle.

In a recent statement, the BVA noted that members are reporting more severe clinical signs and higher mortality rates than in previous years.

'We know that farm vets are working hard to support farmers and animals affected by this outbreak, during what is an extremely difficult time for all involved,' they stated. 'Continued vigilance to identify disease early is vital and vaccination remains the best way of protecting animals from this disease.'
