I want to use this medium to greet all great Hivers. How has been your day so far, hope you are all doing good? I'm positive minded that it's all well and fine.
Yesterday morning I was able to talk about what Pen rest means due to the years of experience I have had in the field which somehow assisted me to be able to arrive at this ideologies. Yesterday! It's a talk about what Pen rest means but today I want to talk about what biosecurity means in the Poultry farm and can it can be improved. Meanwhile, you asked about biosecurity in the Poultry farm, two important things to needs to be put in place;the health of the Broiler birds and the health of the person or the Farmer takin Care of the birds.
According to my own understanding, hence I will like to put the definition of biosecurity in this way. Biosecurity is the precautions or Farmer's precautions put in place in order to curb, hinder, stop or reduce the spread of diseases or viruses in the Poultry farm among the Broiler birds. One of the major things that a Farmer should learn to improve in his or her poultry farm is the biosecurity system. This is because this biosecurity system stands as the umbrella term for each and outcome of every batch of birds. It speaks most likely of the end production.
How to increase the biosecurity system in your Poultry farm.
Like I have advised yesterday in my post. The first step of improving the biosecurity of your Poultry farm is giving it some days of break after harvest. This break assists in reducing and transmission of diseases and viruses from the previous batch to the next batch.
Also, during the break one can take his or her time to disinfect the Pen with liquid disinfectant and then leave it for a while for any kind of diseases to dry off.
Make sure you curb unnecessary access to the pen from outside. Giving external people free access into your pen might leads to introduction of germs, viruses and diseases that can reduce the biosecurity system in your pen.
Another means to improve the biosecurity system of your poultry farm is making sure you are washing the farm tools from time to time. Farm tools like the Shovel, Bowl drinkers, Broom, Packer etc
The biosecurity system of the Farmer must also be considered and this can be done by advising that such Farmer puts on some protective footwear, hand glove, helmet, mask to prevent transmission of diseases from the birds to human.
Another way to improve Poultry farm biosecurity is by parking the sawdust when it's messed up. This will not allow diseases and viruses to be active in the pen to jr extent that it will affect the birds.
Thanks for stopping by to view my blog. Please do have a wonderful day ahead.
