Agriculture Victoria has launched a new monthly biosecurity e-newsletter that will serve as the key hub for all biosecurity updates, featuring a diverse range of biosecurity-related content including new developments in the emergency animal disease (EAD) space.
Victorian Biosecurity Matters will pool all Agriculture Victoria biosecurity content into one monthly e-newsletter and become a source farmers, small landholders, animal owners and veterinarians can rely on in the event of an emergency animal disease outbreak.
The biosecurity e-newsletter will cover a broad range of topics for anyone with an interest in staying up to date with the most relevant information in relation to Victoria’s agriculture industry.
It will focus on emergency animal diseases, including foot-and-mouth disease, lumpy skin disease, varroa mite, marine pests, pest animals, plant diseases and weeds.
Biosecurity Victoria executive director Katherine Clift says “biosecurity is everyone’s responsibility and by staying informed and following best practices, we can all contribute to protecting our industry, environment and economy from the threat of pests and diseases”.
Whether you’re a seasoned professional, or just starting out, Victorian Biosecurity Matters has something for everyone.
