Biosecurity is the most critical defence against devastating poultry disease outbreaks in commercial layer enterprises.
Enforce strict boundary perimeters. All vehicles entering the farm compound must pass through tyre spray dip baths, and farm attendants must change into dedicated boots and protective overalls.
Clean water is the bedrock of poultry health. Dose borehole storage tanks with food-grade water sanitiser and flush nipple drinking lines fortnightly to eliminate biofilm build-up.
Monitor daily feed and water intake, mortality records, and eggshell quality. Early detection of subtle intake drops allows immediate veterinary intervention before disease spreads.
