Biosecurity should be looked at as an essential part of the tthree-waymatrix. Effective biosecurity is essential. And will compliment good vaccines and good management. But is not an excuse for poor management and poor administration of vaccines. The same as good management and good vaccines are not a replacement for poor biosecurity

Biosecurity is the soul of poultry farming. With good Biosecurity, you administer less drugs, Maintain good health birds, low mortality, High FCR, improved production at low cost of production. Biosecurity is cheaper and easier than diagnosing disease and treatments. Let's be Biosecurity conscious.

Biosecurity has to be mainly security for poultry health before you think of vaccines. Vaccines compliment good biosecurity system that control what goes in and what goes out.
