Bitesize Biosecurity: Helping Farmers and Vets with Livestock Health

As part of a multi-disciplinary biosecurity project, we have developed practical resources to help farmers prevent and manage disease transmission in livestock. Initially targeting Johne’s Disease, PRRS, and Roundworm, our work now promotes broader on-farm biosecurity practices. Outputs include discussion support tools, a sampling game, videos, animations, and AI-powered tools, designed for farmers, vets, advisors, and students. By making biosecurity engaging, accessible, and easy to embed in everyday practice, these resources encourage reflection and behaviour change. Delivered through our Bitesize Biosecurity platforms, they aim to strengthen livestock health, reduce the spread of costly diseases, and build more resilient farming systems. At the conference, attendees will be able to sample, test, and play with these interactive tools first-hand!
