Enhanced and cost-effective biosecurity in livestock production: BIOSECURE

鉴于动物、人类和生产系统之间存在大量相互作用，彻底了解感染传播途径是制定良好生物安全措施的关键。传播可以通过直接接触发生，也可以通过一系列间接途径发生，如衣服、鞋类、受污染的车辆、空气等。因此，目前的许多生物安保准则是以经验证据为基础的，因此难以按重要性对措施进行排序。BioSecure的总体目标是提高畜牧业关键行为者和决策者的能力，以便在目前和未来的猪、家禽、牛和小反刍动物陆地畜牧业生产链中理解、优先考虑和实施循证、具有成本效益和可持续的生物安全管理系统。这将通过以下方式实现：·建立和促进多方利益攸关方论坛，以支持互动式知识交流、自下而上的行为改变和吸收关键的可利用成果。·在整个畜牧业生产链中收集现有的生物安全情报，并在欧盟一级创建生物安全风险图，以改善未来的风险分析。·通过定量风险评估和数学模型量化生物安保做法的影响，作为量化农场和部门一级病原体引入和传播概率的工具。·改进和扩大生物安全评分工具，以准确衡量生物安全水平，并提供适应性和科学的建议。通过实验和实地研究，评价和改进生物安全措施。·评估生物安保措施在农场内外的社会经济影响

Given the multitude of interactions between animals, humans and production systems, a thorough understanding of infection transmission routes is key in designing good biosecurity measures. Transmission can occur via direct contact but also through a range of indirect routes such as clothing, footwear, contaminated vehicles, air etc. Although all these routes have been described, their relative importance and therefore the importance of the linked biosecurity measures are still poorly understood. Consequently, many of the current biosecurity guidelines are based on empirical evidence making it difficult to rank measures by importance. The overarching goal of BioSecure is to improve the capacity for key actors and decision-makers in livestock farming to understand, prioritise and implement evidence based, cost-effective and sustainable biosecurity management systems in current and future terrestrial livestock production chains for pigs, poultry, cattle and small ruminants. This will be achieved by: • Setting up and facilitating a multi actor stakeholder forum to support interactive knowledge exchange, bottom-up behavioural change and uptake of the key exploitable results. • Collecting existing biosecurity intelligence throughout the livestock production chain and creating biosecurity risk maps at an EU level for improving future risk analysis. • Quantifying the impact of biosecurity practices through quantitative risk assessment and mathematical models as tools to quantify the probability of introduction and spread of pathogens at farm and sector level. • Improving and extending biosecurity scoring tools for accurate measuring the level of biosecurity and providing adapted and science based advices. • Evaluation and improvement of biosecurity measures through experiments and field studies. • Assessing the socio-economic impact of biosecurity measures both at farm level and beyond
