3 1) Healthy animals / primary producbon

4 / Food Safety RegulaBon No 178/2002 Para asegurar la inocuidad de los alimentos es necesario tomar en consideración todos los aspectos de la cadena de producción alimentaria y entenderla como un conbnuo desde la producción primaria pasando por la producción de piensos para animales, hasta la venta o el suministro de alimentos al consumidor, pues cada elemento Bene el potencial de influir en la seguridad alimentaria. In order to ensure the safety of food, it is necessary to consider all aspects of the food producbon chain as a conbnuum from and including primary producbon and the producbon of animal feed up to and including sale or supply of food to the consumer because each element may have a potenbal impact on food safety.

5 RegulaBon No 852/2004 Hygenic pracbces at every stage

6 RegulaBon No 852/2004 Hygenic pracbces at every stage

7 stable (hygiene in an animal house) building equipment livestock Hygienic pracbces: farm management

8 Hygienic pracbces: stable Dirty and soiled walking areas Damages and diseases of the claws; Invasion of pathogens; Contamina?on of cubicles and lying areas with pathogens Dirty, wet cubicles and lying areas Mul?plica?on of pathogens Infec?ons and diseases of the udder Skin lesions, Invasion and Penetra?on of pathogens Missing pest control (flies, mice) Transmission of pathogens Contamina?on of forage Air quality Warmth and humidity lead to op?mal mul?plica?on of pathogens Lack of ven?la?on lead to a high likelihood of infec?on

9 Hygienic pracbces: livestock Contaminated and dirty animals direct contact: pathogen/ animal: disease nutrient medium for bacteria, fungal diseases and parasites disturbance of well-being: stressor massive incrusta?on: open wounds spreading of pathogens into the original products Risk of infec?on trough contaminated brushes and scrubbers Contaminated and dirty forages and feed troughs Metabolical stressor Metabolical diseases weakened immune system

10 Hygienic pracbces: management Housing condi?ons newborn calves right next to the dams housing condi?ons of calves / material of calf huts and igloos stable environment puqng calves into igloos that have not been disinfected: pathogens! Lack of mucking out and missing disinfec?on Handling healthyè diseased to lisle or poorly cleaned feeding buckets hygiene of the employees

11 Animal welfare / Food Safety The safety of the food chain is indirectly affected by the welfare of animals, par?cularly those farmed for food produc?on, due to the close links between animal welfare, animal health and food-borne diseases. Stress factors and poor welfare can lead to increased suscepbbility to disease among animals. The welfare of food producing animals depends largely on how they are managed by humans. This can pose risks to consumers, for example through common foodborne infec?ons like Salmonella, Campylobacter and E.Coli.

12 Animal welfare / Food Safety Freedom from hunger and thirst Freedom from discomfort Freedom from pain, injury and disease Freedom to express normal behaviour Freedom from fear and distress

22 Claw disorders / pig Pig: Arthritis

23 Decubitus Pig: Decubitus phlegmon (Tarsus) Cattle: Decubitus phlegmon

24 Cannibalism

25 Food Safety Risk of infec?on in humans is associated with the consumpbon of contaminated food meat Milk eggs
