The National Farm Animal Care Council (NFACC) is renewing the Codes of Practice for several farm animal species, including equine. The equine Code renewal is led by a Code Development Committee, which has broad participation from people across the industry, including farmers, equine owners and caregivers, transporters, veterinarians, researchers, and representatives from animal welfare agencies, government, processor/feedlot sector, and other technical expertise.

To ensure the process reflects stakeholders at all levels and across all types of equine, we need your input. This survey is designed to get your views on the care and handling of equine. It will take approximately 10 minutes to complete.

The survey is confidential. Your input is critical to updating the Equine Code of Practice. If you’re interested in staying informed about the Code renewal process, you will have the option to provide us with an email address at the end of this survey.
