Biosecurity for Livestock Diseases in Europe

Transmission, Risk Factors, and Modelling

Beschreibung

Taking an evidence-based, cost-effective approach, this book reviews our understanding of biosecurity throughout the livestock production chain and across poultry, swine, cattle and small ruminants. It covers the prevalence, risk factors, transmission routes and modelling, and control measures for a range of endemic and epidemic diseases.
