BIOSECURITY Methods to prevent and/or control transmission of any health or safety threats to livestock, poultry, and consumers.
Jill Henderickson, Feed Quality Assurance Manager
Biosecurity encompasses methods to prevent and control health threats to livestock, poultry, and consumers, including the prevention of intentional feed adulteration by criminal or terrorist acts. Following recent outbreaks like African Swine Fever and avian influenza, companies are ramping up biosecurity protocols. Key measures include employee training, restricted farm access, wildlife control, proper carcass disposal, safe feed preparation, and equipment sanitization. These steps are crucial to reducing disease risks. CFS has formalized biosecurity protocols to mitigate disease transmission, emphasizing our commitment to keeping our livestock producers safe. Our robust biosecurity program includes continuous training and strict standards for ingredient receiving, visitor policies, and feed truck operations. At CFS, plant personnel attentively observe the activities of visitors, customers, service providers, and fellow employees to ensure compliance with our biosecurity measures. Ongoing biosecurity awareness, which includes continuous education and training, is essential. These measures are crucial for preventing disease outbreaks and ensuring the health and safety of your livestock, which in turn supports the sustainability and productivity of our agricultural community. We understand the vital importance of biosecurity and are dedicated to maintaining the highest standards to protect our producers and their animals.
