Biosecurity procedures are practices that reduce the spread of disease between animals and the environment
Confining animals in a controlled environment to keep out disease vectors
Using physical barriers to keep out outside agents
Limiting the movement of people, vehicles, and equipment on the farm
Using systems to prevent the spread of airborne viruses
Using isolation areas to receive new animals
Requiring farm personnel to shower and use footbaths before entering the farm
