Challenging environments in poultry and livestock production can lead to important economic losses

Low biosecurity and improper hygiene standards in poultry and livestock production create serious risks—for animals, people, and farm performance. 

  • 42% of poultry farms do not consistently apply core biosecurity measures
  • Hygiene practices often lack clear monitoring and follow up
  • Gaps remain unnoticed without regular, structured assessments

Studies show that insufficient cleaning & disinfection, dirty water/feed systems and uncontrolled biosecurity measures can lead to:
  • Higher public health risks, with over 60% of emerging infectious diseases being zoonotic
  • Up to 20% higher contamination rates in hatcheries
  • 10–15% higher chick mortality
  • 5–10% lower weight gain in poultry
  • 22% do not adequately clean equipment entering barns
  • +1.5 to +3.0 percentage points higher mortality in weaner and grower-finisher phases
     

Ecolab Hygiene Check Program is a measurable, specialist led approach to optimize hygiene practices and improve operational efficiency in poultry, swine, and hatchery environments to promote a more sustainable production.

Hygiene Performance Review Meetings

  • Clear, structured reporting offering visibility of hygiene status, gap identification, and actionable recommendations. 
  • Regular progress reviews to evaluate improvements, guide corrective actions, and ensure continuous performance enhances.
When farms apply effective biosecurity and comprehensive hygiene programs can lead to:
  • Disease prevention by reducing the presence of pathogens causing infection.
  • Mortality reduction and improved performance by reducing the risk of infection and pathogens exposure.
  • Reduction in antibiotic use, supporting antimicrobial resistance (AMR) reduction
  • Better farm performance, driven by healthier animals and more stable production outcomes
