Author(s) : EMBORG H. D., SØRENSEN L. C., BECH-NIELSEN S.

Summary

The Danish Salmonella surveillance programme has existed since January 1, 1995. The objective of the surveillance programme is to reduce the prevalence of Salmonella infections in pig herds and pork products. This is facilitated by the high degree of integration between pig producers and the co-operative slaughter companies. The Danish plan consists of the following parts: 1) herd monitoring; 2) monitoring of animal feed; and 3) monitoring of slaughterhouses.
