Storage And Management
Another area that needs special attention is how feed and produce is stored. It is vital that feed bunks and storage areas are inaccessible to rodents or other wildlife. There should be routine checks to make sure that these areas are safe from pests, and checks for signs of mold or other rot. Mold and rot spread so it is important to routinely remove items as they go bad. Feed should also not be stored on the ground. Pallets can ensure that feed is a few inches above the ground. Routinely areas around feed should be swept up and cleaned. Remaining feed or produce can rot and lead to the spread of decay.
Disinfection For Animal Pens
One of the most important elements of any livestock farm is making sure you have multiple pens to take care of animal.s Maternity pens should only be used for birthing animals, while sick pens can help protect your animals in the event that a single one or small groups needs to be quarantined. All kennels need to cleaned regularly to remove waste. Walls and floors should be regularly disinfected. Power washing is often recommended for cleaning, and hot water or steam can be used to destroy a variety of bacteria and viruses.
