When it comes to biosecurity practices on beef cattle operations, limiting hazards and appropriately responding with good management are key in disease prevention. These practices ultimately protect the herd and the Canadian livestock industry from the animal health and economic impacts of foreign animal diseases, including Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD).

To increase awareness of available tools for farmers and ranchers, a collaborative effort between the Beef Cattle Research Council (BCRC) and Animal Health Canada is currently underway ensuring that prevention and emergency response resources are being tailored specifically to the needs of Canadian beef producers.
