Birthing season on any farm can be an often hard and time-consuming time that requires around the clock monitoring and work.
This period often results in an amount of fallen stock that must be handled correctly to ensure the protection of biosecurity throughout the farm.
All animal fallen stock must be collected, identified and transported (or destroyed) without ‘undue delay’ as per the guidelines set out in Article 21 of the EU Control Regulation. Incineration is the cleanest and most bio-secure option available at this time according to DEFRA, DAERA and the EU. Adhering to these guidelines will benefit you and also protect neighbouring farms and even the farming industry in general.
