Scope
This CWA proposes a methodology to assess biosecurity in the F2F sector, centred on a detailed examination of 'transport channels’, in order to initiate the development of a more refined approach. The methodology involves an experimental and quantitative assessment of the risk associated with the transportation of microorganisms, placing particular emphasis on pathogens while considering any other microorganisms present. This methodology is applicable for two different cases: -to experimentally assess and monitor channel-resolved biosecurity in a particular farm, or any other element in the F2F chain like transport or industries; -to evaluate effectiveness and cost-efficiency of a particular biosecurity measure or technology. These experimental data will provide a basis for all stakeholders (like policy makers, veterinarians, or business operators) to estimate or forecast the real effect as well as the cost of the application of a particular measure.
