Andrew O’Brien, Innovation and Special Projects Manager of Pohlmans Nursery, Gatton, Lockyer Valley, Queensland talks about the benefits of having a biosecurity management plan and explains how they implement the 5 general principles of good biosecurity on their farm:
• Have a management plan
• Come clean/ go clean - movement of people and vehicles on and off property
• Management of visitors - restrict on and off and around their property
• Controlling feral / wild animals - bring potential of spreading diseases, or move pathogens
• Clear signage
Queensland relies on a strong biosecurity system to safeguard our industries, economy, environment, biodiversity, and our way of life.
