The implementation of biosecurity measures all along the production chain minimises the risk of introduction of new pathogens into the farms, as well as their spread within farms.

Farm biosecurity is a set of measures designed to protect a property from the entry and spread of pests and diseases. Farm biosecurity is your responsibility, and that of every person visiting or working on your property.

Biosecurity practices and procedures reduce transmission of disease-causing organisms (pathogens) between and within farms. A biosecurity plan can protect your farm from external pathogens and minimize the transmission of diseases within your system.
