Our interactive assessments of the bio-security risks that challenge farms are for farmers and vets to complete. A series of risk assessments have been developed to cover the major endemic diseases. Simply answer a series of biosecurity and biocontainment questions and you will be assigned a level of risk level (high, medium or low) for each component. In this way risk priorities on farms are identified and can be dealt with effectively, to prevent diseases from getting onto, or spreading around the farm. A bio-security program should be part of a veterinary health plan.
