Biosecurity Risk analysis for selected F2F facilities. This analysis has been done in several FarmtoFork facilities including several farms and a slaughter house as a basis for the next task.
Development of procedures and software for assessment of biosecurity in F2F. A new quantitative procedure and software associated has been developed.
Review of existing and under development standards regarding biosecurity in farms. This has included standards under ellaboration.
Experimental assesment of existing microorganisms in selected F2F (air and (fomites, surfaces, animals’ skin & intestine, food, water & waste)). Pig, poultry, cow, sheep and snail farms as well a slaughter house have been selected. It has demonstrated that several thousand species are present aerosolized.
