Seminar: Biosecurity and transportation of fish
The main theme of the seminar is transport of live aquaculture animals by wellboats and its role in spreading diseases in Norway, particularly between regions. Presentations from the seminar are enclosed here.
Well boat technology is at a much higher level today than in the beginning of the industry. That has reduced the risk of transmitting diseases, but still transport is a challenge both for fish health and fish welfare.
The seminar is organized by the Norwegian Food Safety Authority, Sernapesca (Chile) and the Norwegian Veterinary Institute
