Abstract
Biosecurity is the one aspect of a cattle operation that the producer has the most control over. Each producer has practices in place to protect their cattle and optimize their health. Veterinarians are purposefully trained to understand the components of biosecurity including animal health, epidemiology, infectious disease and public health consequences. Biosecurity planning is an important piece to herd health planning that can benefit the producer and the veterinarian. The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) Producer Education team works on the Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) and other Beef Checkoff-funded programs each day to ensure cattle producers and veterinarians have industry-leading information and resources. Several resources developed by the Producer Education team at NCBA, and the separately managed Secure Beef Supply, are available for producers, veterinarians and transporters to review for more information on biosecurity to improve cattle welfare before and during potential disease outbreaks.
