Biosecurity

Good biosecurity helps to keep animals free from pests and diseases. It also helps to boost productivity.

Contact with other animals is the main risk to stock. Diseases can also transfer indirectly on clothing, vehicles, and equipment.

Animal identification, registration, and movement records are also important – see page 46 for more details. www.mpi.govt.nz – search for ‘Lifestyle block biosecurity'
