Abstract
The current level of effective poultry farming requires consideration of today's challenges, which, in our opinion, can be formed in two positions: the well-being of poultry farming and biosafety. Biosafety – it is the prevention, reduction and elimination of the impact of hazardous biological factors (agents) on humans, animals, plants and the environment. Given the pace of development of agricultural production, transport and foreign trade in the modern world, veterinary medicine is faced with many problems associated with the risks of occurrence and spread of infectious diseases. Biosafety issues are especially acute for poultry producers and farmers, as in the process of modern intensive production there are risks of pathogens and their rapid spread, especially in dense poultry, which requires strict conditions of biosafety and biosecurity. Biosafety is one of the most important components of Ukraine's food, environmental and national security. The implementation of policies in the field of biosafety and biological protection should be carried out by creating a system of identification, forecasting, prevention and counteraction to existing threats of biological origin.
The purpose of biosecurity is to ensure that unauthorized persons, animals, vehicles, utensils, tools, other care items, inventory or equipment contaminated with infectious diseases of birds do not enter poultry farms and bird feed preparation areas. We analyzed the existing regulations on the welfare of poultry farms of various forms of ownership. The factors of biosecurity risk control, the basic rules of biosafety in the farm, the requirements for the territory of poultry farms, as well as the guarantees of poultry farm managers are highlighted.
