Enhanced Biosecurity Training

Resources to write an Enhanced Biosecurity Plan and details about H5N1 specific biosecurity can be found under Milk Producers >> Biosecurity.

The enhanced biosecurity plan can only work if EVERYONE on the operation follows it ALL of the time, which requires training. The following videos and materials provide essential personnel with some of the information they need to be part of the herd health protection team. Remember to document all training (visit Forms page).
