We are pleased to announce that KVPAT will be launching its official newsletter, KVPAT Poultry News, later this month. The newsletter will serve as a key communication platform, keeping members informed on developments within KVPAT, updates from the World Veterinary Poultry Association (WVPA), and important trends across the poultry industry locally and globally.

In addition, our official KVPAT website will also go live this month, providing a central hub for information, resources, and engagement among members.

Further, we will soon be launching a membership drive for the World Veterinary Poultry Association (WVPA). Full details will be shared in the inaugural issue of KVPAT Poultry News.

It promises to be a busy and exciting start to the year. We thank you for your continued support and commitment to advancing the poultry sector.

Wishing you every success in your respective areas of practice—whether in veterinary services, poultry production, processing, research, or quality assurance.
