 Hi, I'm Dr Mary Carr, Chief Veterinary Officer of South Australia. Farm Biosecurity is all the little things that producers do every day that prevent the transmission of disease onto properties and also disease spreading around properties. It's also a range of things that provide some assurance to trading partners that we know what diseases look like, we know how to report them and we have response policies in place. So, Australia's first line of defence is our border control. It's about preventing pathogens entering Australia. Unfortunately, this is never going to be 100% effective. We're always going to have to have a second line of defence and that's on-farm biosecurity. On-farm biosecurity was developed in partnership with industry, in particular LifeSoCSA. It's an online risk management program that helps producers manage, improve and promote their on-farm biosecurity practices. One of the biggest benefits from on-farm biosecurity is about having a productive and profitable industry. One biosecurity enables better informed purchasing decisions with buyers able to access credible and transparent checks for on-farm biosecurity practices and animal health management before and at the point of purchase. By showing we have really good biosecurity and data around what practices our producers undertake, we have a really good platform for providing assurances for market access. The other aspect of that is that it provides producers a risk management tool for preventing diseases coming onto their properties. It gives them a platform to actually think about the risk and to help make decisions about what they bring onto their property and also how to manage those diseases on-farm. Through stronger on-farm biosecurity, one biosecurity can make the industry less vulnerable to uncontrolled disease spread. So the online portal has two main components. One is a biosecurity planning component, the other is a disease risk rating. So for the biosecurity planning component, that will meet your LPA, your livestock production assurance requirements and the disease risk rating is a tool that allows you to describe your disease status for your individual property. The important thing about on-farm biosecurity is that we all get in there and work together on it. We need producers to work together, work with their agents and work with their processes to make sure we create a culture of engagement around biosecurity that will secure our future for the livestock industry going forward. Biosecurity is everybody's business. Let's work together to improve on-farm biosecurity. Sign up for one biosecurity online or talk to your local animal health officer.
