Bio-security on African poultry operations
Patience is the key that solves all problems - Sudanese proverb
This is a short and basic guide to bio-security on poultry operations in Africa.
What is Bio-security? -Taking measures to reduce the introduction or spread of disease and pathogens into and within poultry operations.
As I am only a farmer and not a vet, I would like to cover only one way that disease and pathogens can be spread.
- Mechanical transmission - via hands, feet, tyres and equipment to name a few.
How can we as farmers take steps to reduce the mechanical transmission of diseases and pathogens?
The picture in this article shows the entrance into a poultry processing plant in Africa. The management has taken the following steps to increase bio-security:
- The staff members have taken their home clothing off.
- The staff members have taken a shower.
- The staff members have put on clean protective clothing - Rubber boots, overalls, hair nets or caps.
- They proceed into the processing plant by washing their boots and hands before entering the factory area.
- The same procedure is carried out when returning.
- Entry is restricted by a guard and visitors need to sign a register first before proceeding through the same process.
In summary, the aim is to provide a barrier between the outside and the processing and production areas preventing diseases from entering.
This simple procedure can be applied in any circumstance from small farms to large processors.
