EDUCATING FARMERS.!!!

Farming is a major force that drives the economy, and the higher the number of people involved the better for the economy. The agricultural business though very lucrative many players are still in the dark about various aspects of production and better methods of production. Farmers basically need to update their knowledge so they can harness several opportunities,exposure to new drugs and techniques. The farmer needs to learn about management polices,insurance,latest products and vaccination methods,a lot of farmers really operate out of old ideas that cant solve today's challenges,hence there is a need for constant interaction between the service providers and the farmers; animal health care product manufacturers,technical officers,vets,banks and insurance companies. The interactive forum is to expose to modern ways of animal husbandry and how to make more money,in line with this a farmers bazaar is been organized; venue....Ajah vet center,Ajah Lagos. time...10 am date...27/8/15 topic....agric insurance, access to agric facilities, benefits of registration and how to make more money from your venture. There will be demonstration from banks,insurance company,manufacturers of animal health products,disinfectants and protective clothing. come ,learn and be more protective.

BIRD FLU AND COMPENSATION.

The bird flu virus has left a devastating trail in many countries,with resultant huge economic losses and scarcity of poultry products especially eggs. The virus has put so many producers out of business and many more on the brink of financial collapse,the poultry farmers that are worst hit are those without insurance or any type of risk management plan and those that dont qualify for compensation. The risk management tool /insurance is a personal issue on the path of the farmers,many dont take out polices on their investment basically because they lack wisdom,and understanding on the issue.Any farmer that is insured has so many benefits,and links/opportunities to grow bigger. In cases of disease outbreaks, not only do they get pay-outs; they have opportunities to start over without any delay.Many insurance companies have products that cover farmers,their equipment and operation. Be a wise farmer, insure your farm. Compensation in cases of bird flu is a global concern,with more and more countries bring out guidelines on methods of collection and also many countries have made the compensation plan public to encourage farmers to disclose the status of their farms. In Nigeria,there is a compensation plan and guidelines to benefit from the scheme. A farmer that has an incidence on the farm and does not report cant lay claim to any payment. A farmer that has a case of high mortality ,with obvious signs of the bird flu virus and decides to procure a solution without reporting will forfeit any claim to any compensation on birds before the case became a public knowledge. When there is a case of bird flu on your farm, you report to a state veterinary officer,who will report to the state AVIAN INFLUENZA DESK OFFICER,and the farm is visited immediately,samples taken from farm and sent to the NVRI in Jos where a virus is confirmed. The population on the farm as at time of visit is recorded and sent along with sample,this is recorded in the compensation scheme form and its on this data that the payment is made. Early reporting is key to procure meaningful compensation. When the virus is confirmed,the farm is depopulated and disinfected.The process of disinfection is continuous,starting at every week,then followed by every month and the farm facility is not used for 6 months. A quarantine sign is put up on the farm to ensure there are no movement within 3km radius of the farm. Many potent disinfectants are available for this purpose,use proven disinfectants and wear protective clothing.

VIRKON® S is in powder form and tablet form, this come in handy now that avian influenza cases are reported in some countries.The best approach will be to embark on mass decontamination of poultry markets, disinfection of farms and education of populace about the bird flu virus. The movement of birds across states should be prevented at this time, also import of processed birds should also be prevented and surveillance points at borders, control post ,ports and airports should be on alert ,so they can notify the appropriate authorities if any emergency. BE PROACTIVE! THINK BIO SECURITY! THINK VIRKON® S!. GET IT NOW!!!!!!.

The recent outbreak of avian influenza in some countries has stirred the need for better bio security measures with strict compliance,surveillance ,education of populace about HPAI and ban on import of poultry from affected countries. Bio security on the farm encompasses all levels of production, daily operations( standard operative procedure), the farm fittings,structure,tools and vehicular movement. A powerful broad spectrum disinfectant/ cleaner that is very potent against most pathogens especially AVIAN INFLUENZA is recommended for use this is VIRKON® S.It has virucidal properties. VIRKON® S has been used in many countries not only as a bio security chemical, but used widely in cases of outbreaks of avian influenza.

The signs do vary per individuals, but if you have flu symptoms that does not abate even with medication after 3 days, and you have been in contact lately with game birds, or poultry, or you have handled dead birds,or processed poultry birds,or consumed chicken ,or you just returned from a country battling the bird flu, please visit the hospital. The way to nib the virus is early diagnosis: so is it cold?,periodic flu attack? or bird flu? check it out.BE PROACTIVE.KEEP CLEANING WITH DISINFECTANTS,WASH HANDS AND COOK POULTRY PRODUCTS PROPERLY BEFORE CONSUMPTION. DO NOT TOUCH DEAD BIRDS. WHEN YOU TOUCH OR HANDLE BIRDS,WASH HANDS IMMEDIATELY. IF YOU HAVE INCREASED CASES OF MORTALITY ON THE FARM; CALL YOUR VET. DONT BUY PROCESSED POULTRY PRODUCTS OF UNKNOWN SOURCE. IF YOU OBSERVE INCREASED MORTALITY OF BIRDS IN POULTRY FARM AROUND YOU, REPORT TO THE VET AUTHORITY IN YOUR AREA. DISPOSE DEAD BIRDS PROPERLY.
