Animal Health Ireland

Animal Health Ireland

Animal Health Ireland (AHI) provides benefits to livestock producers and processors by providing the knowledge, education and coordination required to establish effective control programmes for non-regulated diseases of livestock. AHI is an industry-led, not-for-profit partnership between livestock producers, processors, animal health advisers and government.

The advice provided by AHI is developed by several Technical Working Groups, whose major outputs and policy advice, wherever possible, are published in international peer-reviewed journals.

Constituted as a Company Limited by Guarantee, AHI functions as a partnership between private sector organisations and businesses in the agri-food sector and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. The fact that Animal Health Ireland has continued to attract and grow such support over the period since its establishment bears testimony to the organisation’s ability to deliver real outcomes on behalf of its stakeholders.

Sustainable Agriculture

Animal Health Ireland’s mission is “To contribute to a profitable and sustainable farming and agri-food sector through improved animal health.” In addition to the direct animal health benefits by AHI programmes and activities, these also contribute directly or indirectly to a series of sustainability goals priortised by their members and is highlighted in this farmer survery.
