Professor Dermot Hayes was interviewed by Brownfield Ag News for the article "National Pork Board says “clock is ticking” if African swine fever reaches U.S.," which examines what impacts an outbreak of African swine fever may have on the U.S. pork industry. Hayes said "We do not have agreements with other countries as to how they would respond, so a likely event is that we would lose access to export markets. And the question is how long we lose access."
Professor Dermot Hayes was interviewed by Beef Magazine for the article "U.S. could lose $231B over 10 years if both ASF, FMD break," which focuses on potential losses in the US pork and beef sectors from ASF and FMD outbreaks. Hayes told Beef that "Exports would be lost and some of the product that might have gone to China would be rendered, making it very useless or losing a lot of value. But a lot of the muscle meat would end up on the domestic market, flooding U.S. pork retail consumers to try and get them to compensate, to consume 25% or 30% more pork and that takes a huge drop in prices."
Dermot Hayes was interviewed by the Des Moines Register about JBS, one of the world's largest pork processors, purchasing some assets of TriOak Foods, which is one of Iowa's largest swine suppliers.
