Our Board of Experts explains the fundamentals of Biosecurity

These papers deal with the challenges of biosecurity from different points of view. They show us, for example, the fundamental aspects of biosecurity as well as the main measures to avoid the introduction of a new infection on a farm and the spread of infections inside it.

Our experts are:

• Dr. Gonzalo Mena, from Chile: He highlights the main aspects to be fully implemented and complied in a farm (Education, Simplicity, Operability, Discipline and setting up indicators).
• Dr. Derald Holtkamp, from the USA: He explains what happens when we are not vigilant and how the hazard analysis helps to maintain a consistent focus on biosecurity.
• Dr. Enric Marco, from Spain: He lists the measures to prevent infection from entering a pig farm (quarantines, access-control, disinfection, etc.) and the measures to avoid the spread of an infection within a farm (AI-AO technique, management, vaccination, etc.).
