Animal hospital revenues were $223 million and laboratory revenues were $103 million, with $5.8 million in eliminations.\u00a0 Operating income for the year was $47.0 million, up from $38.8 million in 1998.

The dairy and swine businesses are currently organized under the Monsanto animal agriculture umbrella, which is tied to the Monsanto agriculture chemicals and seeds units. Many industry observers expected the merger would combine Monsanto\u2019s dairy products with Pharmacia &amp; Upjohn\u2019s animal health business &#8212; a combination that would create a leading dairy cattle health and productivity business. The combination would have resulted in a business with approximately $650 million in sales.\u00a0 Also unrealized may be the potential synergies between DeKalb\u2019s swine genetics and producer relationships and Upjohn\u2019s swine antibiotics and feed additives.\u00a0 Monsanto Agriculture will also be spun off following the merger of Monsanto and Pharmacia in an initial public offering in which the combined Pharmacia will keep an 80% interest. (Feedstuffs)<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0Alpharma Inc. is completing definitive terms for its animal health business to acquire the medicated feed additives business of Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. and should be ready to make the official announcement in March or early in the second quarter, according to Feedstuffs sources who are knowledgeable of the negotiations. The acquisition is significant for Alpharma because it will broaden and compliment the company\u2019s presence in medicated products, which are currently limited mainly to BMD for poultry and swine. Sources said Roche will add several supplements, including Bovatec and Cattlyst for cattle and Bio-Cox for poultry &#8212; the first two products serving as Alpharma\u2019s entr\u00e9e into the cattle industry.\u00a0 The acquisition would add $200 million in sales to Alpharma, doubling its sales and raising it to at least the tier of the top 15 companies. (Feedstuffs)<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0Feedstuffs sources have learned that Israeli trader Philipp Brothers, which has interests in animal health in the U.S., including Koffolk and Prince Agri Products, is close to completing the acquisition of the medicated supplements business of Pfizer Inc. Philipp Brothers\u2019 acquisition of the Pfizer business would be an important acquisition for that company. Its Koffolk division has a marginal presence in the medicated feed additives market with a single anticoccidial for chickens, but Pfizer\u2019s products would add several strong livestock and poultry products, including Aviax, Banminth, Mecadox, Stafac and Terramycin, and $160 million in sales. (Feedstuffs)<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0Merial and Phoenix Scientific announced that they have settled their lawsuit regarding Merial\u2019s claim that Phoenix\u2019s generic injectable ivermectin product infringed Merial\u2019s patent.\u00a0 In addition to other conditions, the settlement stipulates that Phoenix has the right to make and market its own 1% injectable ivermectin in exchange for a royalty paid to Merial. (Feedstuffs)<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0Nutro Products introduced two new dog foods, Natural Choice Large Breed Puppy and Natural Choice Large Breed Adult.\u00a0 The large breed foods include balanced calcium and phosphorus levels, and L-carnitine and DHA.

VetCentric also allows veterinary practices to add e-commerce functionality to their site with the click of a mouse, as well as to take advantage of VetCentric\u2019s other business-to-business e-commerce services.

This is the strongest recommendation yet on the resistance issue, and follows concerns raised by other European bodies including the Parliament, the Council of Ministers and the European Medicines Evaluation Agency. The Council notes the ban imposed in 1998 by the Council of Ministers on the use of four antibiotics in animal feed, which is due to be reviewed by December 31st this year in the light of scientific reports now being prepared, particularly by the EC scientific steering committee. It also notes that a ban was already in force in Denmark, Sweden and Finland. (Avcare newsletter)<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0Beef that is irradiated to kill deadly bacteria will begin appearing in some stores as early as March as processors start testing the public\u2019s reaction to the treated meat. New rules that allow the irradiation of raw beef, pork and lamb take effect today.\u00a0 The meat is expected to cost an extra three to five cents per pound but the price is likely to drop as it becomes more widely available. Irradiation has long been allowed for poultry, as well as fruits, vegetables and spices. (AP)<\/p>\n<p>****************************************************************<br \/>\nAgribusiness News<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0ValiGene and Kimeragen announced today that they will merge to create ValiGen, a EuroAmerican functional genomics company.\u00a0 The newly formed ValiGen will combine the genomics platform under development at Valigene with chimeraplasty, the unique gene correction technology being developed at Kimeragen.\u00a0 The new company will pursue commercial opportunities for its technologies in three areas, including using both genomics and chimeroplasty in order to achieve seed and crop improvements without introducing exogenous genetic material into the seed. (PRNewswire)<\/p>\n<p>****************************************************************<br \/>\nBrakke Consulting Viewpoint<\/p>\n<p>We understand that in the next few weeks, closings will occur on both the Pfizer and Roche medicated feed additives businesses.\u00a0 Although there have been rumors for quite awhile, this is the first time we have seen sources willing to admit that the acquisitions will indeed occur.<\/p>\n<p>A number of you commented on last week\u2019s observations related to e-commerce in the animal health area.\u00a0 If you were not at the Western Veterinary Conference this past week, I can tell you that the activity and interest level in this area is still running high.\u00a0 I attended the special forum on the Future of e-Commerce in Veterinary Medicine, and visited all of the e-commerce companies\u2019 suites or booths.\u00a0 There are some nice ideas being floated, but it will take lots of time and dollars for most of these to become successful businesses.\u00a0 In our opinion, e-commerce is not going to happen fast enough for many of these companies to survive.\u00a0 We suggest that you select your e-commerce partners with care.<\/p>\n<p>Comments on the Western Veterinary Conference<br \/>\nWe had the pleasure earlier this week to spend four days at the Western Veterinary Conference, along with several thousand veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and industry personnel.\u00a0 Other than a couple of mornings of rain, it was a great meeting.\u00a0 The venue, under the direction of Dr Stephen Crane, has greatly improved the meeting.\u00a0 Dr Crane and the Western Board of Directors are to be commended on their hard work.<\/p>\n<p>Some highlights of this year\u2019s meeting were:<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0Safari Night party for leaders in industry and veterinarians, sponsored by Veterinary Pet Insurance<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0Separate display section for e-commerce companies<br \/>\n\uf0fc\u00a0Lots of booth activity on the part of veterinarians.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend that you make plans to attend 2001 meeting.<\/p>\n<p>[Ron Brakke]<br
