Common infectious diseases of poultry such as Fowl pox, Fowl cholera, Coccidiosis and  Marek's disease pose constant challenges to  poultry farmers leading to  incuring losses in death of birds or more cost on disease treatment.

Effective farm biosecurity is the cheapest way to improve overall poultry birds health, cut the costs of disease treatment, reduce losses and improve farm profitability.

Biosecurity practices  are farm hygiene implemented on poultry farms to reduce the risk of disease agents moving on to farms from outside sources (eg wild bird, rodents).
