What is biosecurity?

Biosecurity refers to procedures that prevent livestock and crop diseases from getting onto a farm, spreading within the farm, and/or travelling to another location.  Keeping livestock and crops healthy helps ensure your food is safe. 

Shower in and shower out!

On high biosecurity farms (like many poultry and pig farms), employees have to shower and change their clothing before they enter and after they leave their workplace. If visitors are allowed, then they are also required to shower in and shower out.
