The articles at the Purdue Extension are Readable!
To visit undoubtedly the best University Web site in the world for Agriculture, try this link.  Purdue University is the premiere Agriculture and Veterinary Science Institution in the world, in my opinion.  Most importantly, the Ag School's Web site is fully searchable, most articles are offered in ".PDF" (Adobe Acrobat) format for easy viewing and printing, and the library is voluminous!
 It's not like other School's web sites!
Check out all the Purdue Agricultural publications.
This page lists hundreds of categories, with links to thousands of articles. And you can use the search engine!

 New: EPM vaccine in the works
The following was excerpted from the Horsepower newsletter 02-15-01:
"The USDA-APHIS has announced that it has issued a six-month conditional license to Fort Dodge Laboratories, Inc. for a vaccine intended to aid in the prevention of equine protozoal myeloencephalitis (EPM). Visit <http://www.aphis.usda.gov/vs/cvb/lpd/notices/Notice00-17.pdf> for more information. AAEP supports a strong veterinary-client relationship founded on mutual trust and the mutual goal of improving the health and welfare of the horse which involves the use of safe and effective products."
