Project description
New measures to keep chickens healthy
The European Union is one of the world’s largest poultry meat producers and a net exporter of poultry products with an annual production of around 15 million tonnes. Ensuring high levels of biosecurity is an important part of poultry farming and key to controlling communicable poultry illnesses as chickens are particularly sensitive to epidemics and foodborne pathogens. To that end, the EU-funded NETPOULSAFE project will compile, validate and share supporting measures that have been implemented, or are close to being implemented, in large poultry producing countries. Moreover, field and literature data will be analysed from a technical and socio-economic point of view and validated in pilot farms or directly disseminated to farmers.
