1 Implementation of the Salmonella control programme in broiler flocks in Slovenia March, Beograd Maja Bajt

2 Legislation Regulation (EC) No 2160/2003 minimum sampling requirements - Annex II, Part B (sampling frequency) specific requirements for fresh poultry meat 1 - Annex II, Part E requirements for laboratories (Art. 12) Regulation (EU) No 646/2007 Union target for the reduction of Salmonella in broiler flocks Testing scheme necessary to verify the achievement of the target (frequency and status of the sampling, sampling protocol, examination of the samples, results and reporting)

3 Legislation Antimicrobials shall not be used to control salmonella in poultry Regulation (EC) No 1177/2006 Regulation (EC) No 199/2009 Derofation from Reg. 2160/2003: flocks from which small quantities of fresh meat derived

4 SNCP in broiler flocks National control programme for broilers is operational since 1 January Aim of the SNCP reduction of S.Enteritidis and/or S.Typhimurium, to 1% or less in broiler flocks In Slovenia SNCP covers all broiler flocks intended for slaughter. Exception: flocks of broilers where FBO supply small quantities of fresh meat from such flocks to final consumer or local retail establishment directly supplying such fresh meat to the final consumer (5500 broilers/year)

5 Structure of the industry 348 holdings for broiler production / 2200 flocks per year Majority of holdings have agreement with large BOs (92,5%) approximately animals per flock broilers slaughtered per year broiler flocks are not vaccinated Compensation not provided for broilers flocks

6 Monitoring in flocks of broilers

7 Flocks of broilers Sampling frequency and sampling protocol Regulation (EC) No 2160/2003 Regulation (EU) No 646/2007 I. Sampling on the initiative of the business operators within 3 weeks before the birds are moved to the slaughterhouse (each flock is tested) two pairs of bootswabs are taken tested as one pooled sample

8 Flocks of broilers Results of the are available before animals are slaughtered Approximately 25% of flocks is tested two times (3 week period is exceeded because of the thinning) Possible derogation to sample at least one flock per round on holding with several flocks: BOs shall submit an application for derogation to VARS (no derogation till now)

9 Flocks of broilers II. Official sampling At least one flock of broilers is sampled on 10% of the holdings each year holdings with less than 5000 birds are included in the official sampling Additional risk based official sampling (e.g. positive flock) Official sampling, if OV considers it necessary

10 Notification of the positive results and specific measures

11 Notification of positive results Operators official /approved laboratories S.Enteritidis/S.Typhimurium (within 2 days) other serovars (not required) S.Enteritidis/S.Typhimurium (next day at latest) other serovars (within 3 days)

12 Specific Measures I. Positive flock: if presence of SE or ST is detected in the samples taken by BO or in the official samples Measures if SE or ST is detected (National rules) ban of the movement of the animals except for slaughter or killing/destruction if flock is slaughtered: as a last batch heat treated meat products (or destroyed) meat can be used only for OV at the slaughterhouse must be informed at least a day before slaughter cleaning and disinfection of the house; prior to the placement of new animals the bacteriological control must be carried out

13 Specific Measures II. If flock is not tested for Salmonella before slaughter flock with unknown health status (same measures apply as for positive flock) Salmonella testing (Regulation 2073/2005) Sampling of poultry carcases from flocks with unknown status or from the flocks positive for SE/ST (Annex I, Chapter 3, point 3.2.) meat) not sampled (meat is not placed on the market as a fresh

14 Results of the sampling Year No of tested flock Positive (Salmonella spp) Positive (SE/ST) (1,76) 4 (SE) (0,33) (ST)

15 Official control and collection of the data

16 Official control Official controls: Official sampling Official control on the holdings (check lists) Monitoring of the implementation of SCP (internal database) Frequency of official control on the holdings is defined in Annual Control Plan of VARS

17 Official control on the holdings I.Breeding flocks One official visit per year (holdings and hatcheries) - bio security measures - requirements of Directive 2009/158 - implementation of Salmonella monitoring - documentation Additional official control in case of positive flock

18 Official control on the holdings II. Laying hen flocks Frequency of official control: criteria for risk assessment of holdings minimum frequency of official controls (1 per year, every 6 months, once per every 2 year) - bio security measures - implementation of Salmonella monitoring - requirements of Regulation 852/2004 and 853/2004 Additional official control in case of positive flock

19 Official control on the holdings III. Broiler flocks At least 10% of the holdings - bio security measures - implementation of Salmonella monitoring - documentation Additional official control in case of positive flock

20 Collection of the data Regional Offices (official sampling) Bussines operators after testing Official laboratories Approved laboratories monthly Main Office (collection of data, reporting)

21 Internal databases data on sampling by official veterinarians data on sampling by operators

22 Data on sampling by operators breeding flocks Laying hen flocks broiler flocks turkey flocks adult rearing Information in the database: - business operator / data on holdings / houses - flock data - date of sampling, age of the flock at time of sampling - results of the testing

23 Data on official sampling Information in the database: - business operator / data on holdings / houses - flock data - date of sampling, age of the flock at time of sampling - results of the testing - type of the samples, - status of the sampling, - additional samples e.g. feed, antimicrobial testing,..)

24 Internal databases Database on official EFSA REPORT database on sampling by operators verification of correct implementation of official sampling verification of correct implementation of the sampling carried out by BOs Published on the internal VARS web site
