Protecting Poultry Flocks from Contamination
US - Protecting poultry flocks from microorganism contamination is an extremely important component of commercial poultry production environment.The
introduction of a highly pathogenic, contagious disease
organism into poultry flocks could result in serious
economic consequences for producers.
The effectiveness
of a biosecurity program can be optimized by regional
participation.
While any level of biosecurity is helpful, if
all poultry producers in a given area utilize best
management programs, the program as a whole will be
more effective.
Practicing sound biosecurity procedures
every day as part of a best management program will
help reduce the possibility of contracting a disease and
will reduce the spread of disease should an outbreak
occur.
