A feed store is likely to have many customers who own poultry or have contact with poultry. It is nearly impossible for you to know the health status of those birds, therefore it is important for your store, to provide the best bio-security possible for your customers. Practice biosecurity at the feed store itself. The first line of defense begins at the building entrance, where diseases commonly enter your building. A clean entrance should be maintained on a daily basis.
