Biosecurity Measure for Poultry farm PPT

Applying Bio security in Poultry farm

1. BIOSECURITY BIOSECURITY Measures for Poultry Farm

2. Measures that should be taken to keep any diseases from a farm. To protect from a biological threat A Poultry Producer operates within a complex global food system. Producers are the first line of defense in our food security system Biosecurity is the cheapest, most effective means of disease control available Biosecurity

3. The Benefits of Biosecurity Helps keep out diseases Reduces the risks Limits the spread of disease Reduces mortality losses Improves profitability Biosecurity

4. People Vehicles Equipment Disease Animals Carrier Animals Fecal Material Body Discharges Contaminated Feed and Water How Disease Spread?

5. How is Biosecurity Achieved? Tire Baths Reduces opportunity for incoming traffic, such as feed and delivery trucks, to bring in pathogens from outside the perimeter of the farm.

6. Outside Perimeter High fences prevent intruders such as animals and people from entering the premises and possibly transmitting diseases to the flock. How is Biosecurity Achieved?

7. Control vector habitat and attractants Birds Rodents Varmints Insects Make sure pen is animal and bird proof How is Biosecurity Achieved?

8. How is Biosecurity Achieved? Footbaths Footbaths are placed outside the door of all facilities and contain disinfectants, reducing the risk of bringing pathogens inside the buildings.

9. How is Biosecurity Achieved? Sanitation of Equipment and Supplies The purpose of sanitizing equipment, surfaces, and supplies is to reduce pathogens. This is especially important in preventing the spread of diseases between neighboring flocks.

10. How is Biosecurity Achieved? Good Hygiene Prior to entering the facility, employees and visitors should demonstrate good hygiene by showering and wearing clean designated clothing such as boot covers, hairnets, and cover-all.

11. How is Biosecurity Achieved? Entrance Order The order of entering facilities depends on the age of the birds. For example, you want to enter the hatchery first (where the youngest birds are), before entering the grower house (where the older birds live.) Older birds have stronger immune systems, making them more resilient to any pathogens that may be present.

12. How is Biosecurity Achieved? No contact with outside birds Since most avian diseases are transmitted through the air, it is highly important to have no contact with outside birds within 72 hours of entering a facility. This includes pets as well as birds from other flocks.

13. LOOK REPORT PROTECT

14. Minimize stressors to prevent increased susceptibility to disease Fresh feed Clean water Clean, dry litter Good ventilation Provide an overall comfortable environment Maintain Flock health

15. WATER High-quality drinking water is essential for animal farming as it influences growth, product quality, and overall health. Feed Feed can serve as a significant source of contamination in poultry farming, leading to diseases such as salmonellosis, mycotoxicosis, and colibacillosis. CONTROLLING THE SANITARY QUALITY OF THE WATER AND FEED

16. This factor has the greatest impact on the animals' living conditions and on their performance. Young animals: the body temperature regulation mechanisms of chicks are not very effective during the first few days of life. The surface area in contact with the air is proportionally very high. The buildings should be warmed up 48 hours before the arrival of a new flock. At start-up and until adult feathering is achieved avoid temperature variations of more than 5°C over a period of 24 hours. Avoid very high temperatures, especially at the end of the production. TEMPERATURE

17. On a farm, litter which is in poor condition indicates that other parameters are being incorrectly controlled. LITTER

18. The term "chick quality" covers all the variables which may relate directly with the ability of the chick to generate a profit. The health quality of the chick is one component of chick quality. Controlling this form of quality involves ensuring that the chick is not carrying some infections: Salmonella, mycoplasmas, colibacillosis etc. CHICK QUALITY

19. Watch for symptoms such as: Coughing, sneezing, watery eyes, ruffled feathers, loss of feathers, excessive picking, labored breathing and sudden drops in production and feed or water consumption Eliminate unhealthy or nonproductive birds Check birds periodically for lice, mites, and worms Disease/Health Checks

20. Vaccinating breeders limits the vertical transmission of pathogens (e.g. : encephalomyelitis) which could otherwise degrade chick viability. It also enables the mothers to pass on protection via maternal antibodies, which will protect the chicks for a certain time. Vaccinating breeders thus enhances the chick's own passive immunity (e.g. against IBD and infectious anemia). Vaccination
