# FDA Drug Residue Prevention Program

> **NIH FDA U18** · VA ST DEPT/ AGRICULTURE & CONSUMER SRVS · 2020 · $125,000

## Abstract

Project Summary
The Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS) requests funding to
continue development of an effective and robust drug residue prevention program. Over the
past three years, VDACS’ work with FDA has led to greater awareness of drug residues in
animal products among veterinarians and animal producers in Virginia. The cooperative
agreement funding will be utilized to expand and enhance that awareness through outreach with
industry and livestock markets, allowing direct interaction with producers. Additionally, funding
will be used to target education and outreach through on-site assessments and best practice
visits with residue violators identified by FDA. VDACS staff will conduct education outreach
activities and develop materials to enhance producer knowledge of proper drug use,
management of treated animals and compliance with extra-label drug use regulations.
