Biosecurity

Biosecurity literally means the safety of live beings. In avian health, biosecurity is all the preventative measures taken to protect birds from infectious disease. For example, proper biosecurity in a feed store can help prevent germs from contaminating feed, and in turn, from contaminating any birds including your customer's healthy birds.
