“…It is obvious that there are many ways of spreading the pathogens which have to be anticipated and intercepted, as the main goal of every farm production biosecurity plan (Brennan et al 2008).…”

“…Studies conducted in The Netherlands, California and New Zealand have identified and quantified these contacts over time, particularly with regard to the potential spread of FMD (Brennan et al, 2008). The number of contacts varies greatly when considering characteristics such as type of enterprise, size of farm and number of animals on farm (Bates et al, 2003), illustrating the structural complexity and heterogeneity of the contacts between farms.…”

“…According Brennan et al (2008), almost half the farmers shared equipment with other farms and importantly, tractors were the most commonly shared item, farmers reporting that tractors were most frequently used for waste handling and feeding. This potentially increases the risk of pathogen transmission by the faecal-oral route.…”

“…Biosecurity is important in avoiding not only catastrophic or foreign animal diseases, but in reducing the risks of endemic diseases (Bickett-Weddle and Ramirez, 2004), like digital dermatitis, Johne's disease, contagious mastitis, and enzootic bovine leukosis. Biosecurity practices are also designed to be adapted when emerging diseases are discovered, such as Schmallenberg virus in Europe in 2012 (Brennan et al 2008).…”

Basic principles of biosecurity plans creation and inplementation were given in this review paper. This include goals wanted to be acheived related to specificities of dairy farm technology, sellection of measures that have to be included, order and manner of measures description, inplementation, as well as failures in plan execution. Efficiacy and further sustainibility of biosecurity plans inplementation could be measured through differences between biosecurity level before and after plans application established by questionnaire about biosecurity indicators, such as: 1. isolation of the farm and its organization, 2. quarantine and newly purchased cows policy, 3. visitors policy, 4. attitude towards equipment use, 5. pest control, 6. sanitation efficasy and 7. farm impact on environment. The stakeholders have to define and develop plan to keep potential pathogens for dairy herd health and production in cooperation with the veterinarian and the other professionals advising on organisation and production technology. At least once a year, it is necessary to reconsider the plan and supplemented by new practical experience and scientific knowledge.

“…Sanitasi kandang dan lingkungan sekitar kandang adalah penting untuk membantu mencegah penyebaran virus. Melakukan pembersihan rutin dengan desinfektan terutama peralatan kandang akan dapat secara efektif membunuh virus BVD dan untuk membantu mencegah penyebaran virus (Brennan et al, 2008). Langkah-langkah ini akan dapat membantu untuk memastikan kawanan ternak dapat terhindar dari infeksi.…”

ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan suatu kajian serologis tentang penyakit bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) dan mendeteksi adanya kaitan pemeliharaan kandang sebagai faktor risiko sumber penularan penyakit BVD pada sapi potong impor. Pengujian screening awal mengggunakan ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbant assay) Antibodi BVD terhadap 100 sampel serum darah sapi, dan ditemukan 63 positif terhadap adanya antibodi anti BVD. Selanjutnya dilakukan pengujian lanjutan ELISA Antigen BVD dan hasilnya seluruh sampel negatif terhadap Antigen BVD. Hasil positif uji ELISA terhadap antibodi BVD mengindikasikan bahwa sampel mengandung antibodi anti BVD akibat pernah terinfeksi oleh virus BVD secara sementara (transient) atau melalui vaksinasi. Berdasarkan dokumen health certificate dari negara asal tidak terdapat informasi yang jelas terhadap perlakuan vaksinasi BVD pada sapi potong impor. Oleh karena itu diperlukan pemeriksaan screening di negara Indonesia untuk mendeteksi dan melakukan usaha preventif mencegah penyebaran di feedlot. Faktor-Faktor yang mempengaruhi kejadian hasil ELISA antibodi positif BVD, terkait dengan penyebaran penyakit BVD selama dalam masa pemeliharaan dan penggemukkan adalah program biosekuriti pada peternakan dengan nilai (OR=3,316; CI=1,380-7,967), dan pengelolaan limbah kandang dalam peternakan dengan nilai (OR=2,667; CI=1,105-6,434). Hasil ini menunjukkan ada asosiasi antara kedua faktor yang ada pada peternakan dengan kejadian penyakit BVD.Kata kunci: BVD, ELISA antibodi dan antigen, faktor risiko ABSTRACTThis research was a serological study on bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) and also to detect the relevance of maintenance farm management as a risk factor on the spreads of BVD. The initial screening test was performed using antibody capture enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to BVD on 100 cattle blood serum samples. The screening test showed that of 63 samples were positive to BVD antibody and 37 samples were negative to BVD antibody. The next screening test was performed using antigen capture ELISA to BVD and all samples showed negative results on BVD antigen. The results of the ELISA test positive for antibodies to BVD indicates that the samples examined anti-BVD antibodies due to BVD virus had been infected by a temporary (transient) or vaccination. Based on the document health certificate from the country of origin there is no clear information on the treatment of BVD vaccination on imports of beef cattle. So, we need a screening examination in the country of Indonesia to detect and perform preventive measures to prevent the spread in feedlots. Relevant factors that affected the occurrence of positive result on BVD antibody detection was farm biosecurity programs with odds ratio (OR) value of 3.316 and confidential interval (CI) value of 1.380-7.967. Further relevant factor was caging waste management with OR value of 2.667 and CI value of 1.105-6.434. There were statistically significant differences (p<0.05) between farm biosecurity programs and caging waste management related to...
