Abstract
- The article focuses on biosecurity measures that can be applied to prevent the introduction and spread of diseases on dairy farms in Ireland. It notes that the implementation of a strict closed herd policy is the most important measure and practice that can be used and promoted on dairy farms to effectively prevent and control infectious diseases. Furthermore, animals can also be protected by minimizing their movements combined with the use of stock-proof and disease-proof boundaries.
