Abstract

The aim was to examine the structural features and biosecurity practices of sheep farms operating in Niğde province. For this purpose, 75 farms operating in the region were classified according to size (number of animals) and production system (extensive and intensive) and, they were compared in terms of typology and biosafety. In this context, a face-to-face survey was conducted with the owners or authorized persons of the small, medium and large size farms and the data collected from the farms about technical, sanitation-hygiene and health protection were comparatively presented. According to the findings obtained from the study, manure and wastes produced in 24% of farms were seen randomly throwing into the environment, and the differences observed between farms depending on the farm size were found significant (P<0.05). These farms can become a potential source of environmental and odor pollution. In addition, it was determined that disinfection was not applied to a large extent (97.30%) as a preventive measure at farm and shelter entrances (P>0.05). At the end of the study, it has been concluded that the typology and biosafety practices could be an important support for future strategic programs against disease and other factors which affects the production of the Niğde region.
Niğde省绵羊养殖场结构特征及生物安全检验
目的是检查Niğde省经营的绵羊养殖场的结构特点和生物安全措施。为此,根据规模(动物数量)和生产系统(粗放型和集约型)对该地区经营的75个养殖场进行了分类,并在类型学和生物安全性方面进行了比较。在这方面,对小型、中型和大型农场的所有者或授权人员进行了面对面调查,并比较介绍了从农场收集的有关技术、环境卫生和健康保护的数据。根据研究结果,24%的农场产生的粪便和废物被随机扔到环境中,根据农场规模不同,观察到的农场之间的差异显着(P<0.05)。这些农场可能成为环境和气味污染的潜在来源。此外,确定在养殖场和畜舍入口处未采用消毒作为预防措施的比例较大(97.30%)(P>0.05)。在研究结束时,得出的结论是,类型学和生物安全实践可以为未来的战略规划提供重要支持,以对抗疾病和其他影响Niğde地区生产的因素。
