[Anne-Christine Lefort]

When a visitor says “I will only do a short visit of the farm”, are you able to adapt your procedure ? How do you proceed ?

[Mattias Delpont]

A short visit is still a visit ith contamination risk. Do you have experience of farmers/visitors not respecting hygiene lock biosecurity rules beacause of a short visit?

[Mattias Delpont]

If the visit is only aimed at having a short look at inside the barn, check the farms records / water tank / lighting, (1) they may even not have to enter the barn, and a window on the door could do the trick (2) or “easy to put” (not requiring the use of hands) gardening clogs could reduce the time dedicated to changing boots. Just like when you like to reduce the time needed to put your slippers on!

[Peter van de Laar]

I think it says a lot about the awareness of hygiene when a visitors states “i only have a short visit” which implicates that he don’t find it necessary to do the complete procedure
