This comprehensive collection offers five peer-reviewed reviews that delve into enhancing biosecurity in livestock production. In the opening chapter, the significance of implementing biosecurity measures throughout the entire pig production chain is emphasized, with a focus on minimizing disease introduction (external biosecurity) and its spread (internal biosecurity) within the farm. The second chapter delves into the diagnosis and monitoring of common pig diseases, exploring the control measures that can be implemented on the farm. It underscores the importance of establishing robust biosecurity protocols. The third chapter provides a concise overview of the emergence and re-emergence of various infectious pathogens in poultry. It highlights the critical role of improving biosecurity in poultry flocks to mitigate future disease risks, emphasizing the significance of proper cleaning and disinfection techniques.
The fourth chapter offers a comprehensive overview of good farming practices for beef cattle farms, emphasizing biosecurity, animal welfare, and the importance of clean cattle policies. It sheds light on the key issues of biosecurity that arise in organic animal farming and discusses their profound impact on human health. Two case studies are presented to showcase the successful implementation of biosecurity plans in reducing disease risk.
This collection serves as a valuable resource for professionals, researchers, and stakeholders in the livestock industry, providing valuable insights and best practices for enhancing biosecurity and promoting animal health and welfare.
