    Personal hygiene risks

    In the past few years, the agricultural sector has made strides in the area of hygiene measures. Since the outbreak of various diseases over the past decades, good hygiene is a must to be able to run your business successfully. You want to keep infectious germs outside your shed doors how ever you can. Because if your animals are ill, then this has serious consequences. This is certainly the case for the aggressive African swine fever virus or the H5N8 bird flu virus. Not only is the economic damage considerable, but the impact on you personally as an entrepreneur, on your employees and on your family can also be considerable. Fortunately, you can do something yourself to minimise the risk of bringing in germs.

    Contamination in agriculture

    There is no doubt that good personal hygiene is of the utmost importance in agriculture. It helps to reduce the risks of disease being introduced. That is why a clear hygiene protocol is indispensable.

    You can achieve a lot on your farm to prevent infections without major interventions. For example, clear routing in the stables, separate materials for each animal group, a well-equipped hygiene sluice or changing room and company clothing and boots that are only worn in the animal houses.

    With over 40 years of experience, Elpress has built up the necessary experience in agriculture. For every project, large or small, we increase our experience and share it to answer new hygiene issues.
