Book Description
This Producer Guide is designed to help farmers assess the relative biosecurity risk to their farm and provide information on the current best management practices available to minimize those risks. This guide is intended to provide support for the creation of a farm-specific biosecurity plan. It is a "how to" guide for the implementation of the National Voluntary Farm-Level Biosecurity Standard for the Grains and Oilseeds Industry. The guide provides an outline of a biosecurity management plan that includes information on: input procurement practices, managing equipment movement, variety, field and crop selection (including rotation), infield monitoring and control practices, managing people access and movement, storage, handling and transport, and management plan development, updating and renewal.--Includes text from document.
