| Biosecurity measures can be
implemented on a national, state or herd level.
Responsibility for herd-level biosecurity usually rests with the herd owner. To be successful, a
biosecurity plan must address factors important in
overall animal health (vaccinations, nutrition, ventilation),
how traffic (movement of people, animals
and equipment) will be regulated, and how cleaning
and
disinfection procedures will be used to reduce
pathogen levels. |
