“Adding Merck Animal Health to the ownership of LeeO will certainly allow for growth at a faster pace, which is great for the swine industry,” said Doug Webel, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of United Animal Health, Inc., a strategic partner of LeeO for food chain visibility and analytics. “We view this agreement as a key step to advancing this technology and animal traceability for better animal health.”
Evidence-based animal traceability solutions have helped to safeguard and strengthen the integrity of the food supply chain.
