Movement controls

In a similar way to quarantine of infected farms, regional or inter-property movement controls can be used to reduce the risk of spread of infection from areas of high prevalence to areas of lower prevalence. These movement controls can be supported by official disease “zones” and regulatory requirements for movements between zones, or by a less regulated approach and voluntary implementation of recommended movement controls to minimise disease spread by farmers.
