For broiler farm,
Practice all in all out and for multi age system of operation, adopt strategic stocking.
Construct a cloak room and have a single entry point is to the farm.
In addition, restrict unauthorized entry 🚫 and documents history of necessary visits to the farm and finally, screen day old chick and feed before entrance to the farm 😀

1. Farm biosecurity measures:
farm entry and visitor control, disinfect footwear and hands, wear farm-specific clothing, quarantine new birds.
Housing and environment management: maintain proper ventilation, keep litter dry, control rodents and wild birds, clean and disinfect regularly (feeders, drinkers and equipment)
feed and water hygiene: provide clean water, use high quality feed, store feed properly
2. Disease prevention strategies:
vaccination program, regular health monitoring.
