Developing toolson-line herd health databases
Role
was founded in 30.06.1994
• To maintain animal health situation
• To manage risks with ”Free Trade”-ideology
• Broad consensus by stakeholders in primary production a basis for joint venture
• Common intrest readiness to take responsibility : win - win
”Prevention is better than cure - and cheaper”
ETT ra. got the mandate to make rules
and national guidelines full
commitment from the stakeholders
when carrying out the joint venture

Working in joint venture:
Rules and guidelines
How to keep the pathogens out (country / farm)

Better
immunity
Less
pathogen

6. Future challenges….
Education &training:
Awareness of the key messages
1.10.1994 Start: info tour within
foodindustry
In may 1995 the WORK really
started………
8.12.1995
Salmonella outbreak in feedmill
900 farms suspected!
200 cattlefarms contaminated
Real activator and motivator !
E&T: New policy and practises
taken by industry and other stake-holders :
- Information occasions to farmers
- Prevention practises -first by neighbours!
- Eradication practices
- evening meetings by local Farmers union
ETT ra coordinated meetings, sent materials and gave consultation
We learned some lessons ….. and salmonella was a very good teacher!
E&T:
EU-financed projects
by rural advisory centers
- including presentations concerning current
disease situation and biosecurity
2 large eradication projects in swine sector
- mycoplasma, dysentery, mange 2001-2004
Education project by Finnish Swine Farmers Ass. and
ETT in 2011-2013 (400 000€)
- 4 tours:4 x 16 occasions, 2 in english : ia ASF
- over 3500 partcipants
- authorities delegate in every occasion
E &T: By ETT Swine sector:
- 2 large tours 2003, 2008-2009
Cattle sector:
- 2 large tour 2007, 2010
- Contagious Disease and Prevention Theme -year 2012
Poultry:
- The Poultry Health Day, every year together
with Finnish Poultry Ass.
2013: 40 presentations of biosecurity
2014: ASF- info occasion for vets, hunters and
stakeholders
E&T: Vets Info tour 1995 of ETT (salmonella outbreak!)
Separated cattle, swine and poultryday 2002
Consultation given daily
Lectures to students in Hki University ia
infection epidemiology, animal health
Presentations in Finnish Vet. Ass. congress
yearly
Vet -web info in Swine and Cattle health
Database
Education tours in 2010-2012 (800 vets)

2. Working in joint venture
3. Education and training
4. How farmers are committed?
5. How to evaluate effectivity ?
6. Future challenges….
How farmers are committed 1.Quality commitments between farmers and industry
- rules (ia. animal trade, feed import)
- tightest with meat poultry and swine sector
2. Via group-insurance conditions
- biosecurity measures and feed hygiene
3. Via participating in national herd health programs
- controlled via Databases
- tightest in swine sector ISO 9001
4. Price / animal movements ETT/Sikava
- health classification in swinesector
5. Social pressure !
- Voluntary actions have became norms
1. Voluntary actions by stakeholders

4. How farmers are committed?
5. How to evaluate effectivity
6. Future challenges….
1.Situation :
- number of outbreaks
2013: 10 subcl. cattle salmonella, 15 dysenterycase
- new diseases:
S.influenza, Scmallenberg, M.bovis, IB
- eradication projects
BVD eradicated, Mycoplasma hyop. eradicated
mange eradicated, dysentery ……
2. Are imports done under ETT`s control? - 99,5%
How to evaluate effectivity

How to evaluate effectivity 3.Via database - herds in Herd health programs
- animal health visits by vet with standard document
- occurrences of disease and symptoms
- mortality
- situation in eradications
- results of control of biosecurity
(form in web version 2015)
4. Audits (in swine sector) QS ISO 9001
5. Farmers contacts!!
“ We hear those things through the grapevine”
Documented health status in databases:
Sikava: 95% of swineherds
- 2013: 7606 animal health vetvisits in 1900 swineherds
www.sikava.fi
Naseva: 55 % of cattleherds
-2013: 5 648 vetvisits in 7200 cattle herds
www.naseva.fi
More spesific information from adopted biosecurity measures
from farmlevel 2016!

6. Future challenges in E&T….
Future challenges in E&T
If we look prevention more holistic way:
Complicated and intensive production systems
Foreing workers and subcontracts
New and old diseases / global situation
Hobby stakeholders
Lack of attitude /different values
Economical situation and competition
How desicion makers, also authorities, keep
themselves aware of practice
Future challenges in E&T
1. Complicated production systems and chains
- larger production units/ new tecniques/
new systems as heiferhotels
- more contacts/large volumes/higher speed
- farmer are more depending on other operators
- global production chains (poultry, swine)
more sensible for disturbances
more unexpected risks
E&T
wider than on farm level
knowledge of the whole picture
demand for risk assessment and evaluation
Future challenges in E&T
2. Foreing workers and subcontracts
- different culture, language skills
risks for misunderstanding
- operators from different sectors
E&T:
new groups needing E&T
new persons in E&T with new skills
farmers personal skills as manager
Future challenges in E&T
3. New and old diseases
- Intensive production exposes to more virulent strains, resistence, affects herd immunity
- Climate changes vectorborne diseases
- Global situation: role of developing countries China, India, Africa
E&T:
- how keep up with latest information and studies
- constant risk evaluation is needed
- focus also to outsiders : ASF
Future challenges in E&T
4. Hobby stakeholders
- farms with ”zoo”
- backyard production ( poultry)
- excotic species or breeds (mangaliza swine)
E&T:
- risks to bring diseases to production chain
- hard to get information and awarenes
- which organ carries out E&T ?
Future challenges in E&T 5. Lack of attitude or different values
- Passive people
- People who are ready to take risks
- People tired with byrocratic jungle
- Alternative production?
organic production
facts or ideologic fictions
E&T:
- biosecurity in alternative production
Future challenges in E&T 6. Economical situation and competition
- at farmlevel / in whole sector
if bad times: decision making based only
economical aspects on short terms
- ownership: decisionmakers are ”faraway”
from practise/farmlevel
E&T:
- Prevention is better than cure - really?
-
Future challenges in E&T 7. Decisionmakers perspective
- people deal with tiny piece of chain
picture can dissappear
contacts to practice are diminishing
- How and who priorisizes
- What reality matters?
- What about responsibility?
E&T
- Meetings in joint venture to make networks
- decision makers also need E&T
Conclusions
Working in joint venture together
Risk evaluation and assessment needed
Everybody in the food chain is aware of the risks
and responsible
Carrots and sticks: nobody is going to pay if you
take risk and fail
Information in simple model ;Clear key message
