  What is NPIP?

GPLN works closely with the commercial poultry industry to keep Georgia's poultry industry healthy. We provide a range of services from disease monitoring and testing to chick quality assurance to hatchery inspections. Please visit the services section of the GPLN website for a complete list of the services we have to offer. We strive to provide quick results and reporting. We can report the test results to you in a method that is best for your company either by fax or email. If there is anyway we can improve our services or meet your needs, please let us know.

The National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP) was started in the early 1930s to coordinate State programs aimed at the elimination of pullorum disease from commercial poultry.  Pullorum is a bacterial disease of poultry that is transmitted from a hen to her chicks via the egg.  By testing adult birds and eliminating the disease carriers from the breeding flock, commercial chicken and turkey producers have eliminated this costly disease.
