Liptov. Your breeding you are before the infection Slinters and cubes They also protect Liptov farms and teams. Although preventive measures go into money and require extra work, they do it to keep animals safe from highly contagious disease.

“Animal breeding is our work, our life,” says Ľubomír Rakyta.

Another great -makers closed the court in front of the public while the virus was in Hungary. They help each other as they know. In Važec they had a problem getting disinfectant fords, today they have them thanks to the engineer for the production of wagons. In part they also helped other farmers.

It takes self -discipline

The Farm in the Holy Cross is currently closed to the public. Like everywhere in Slovakia, there is also a ban on entry. Only employees can enter their livestock and sheep breeding, and they also work in stricter conditions.

« In our courtyards we have prevented the unnecessary movement of people and mechanisms. Our employees park cars outside the premises. Every single vehicle that inevitably enters the yard with feed or goods, we clean and disinfect, » explains Agro Racio chief Ľubomír Rakyta. They focus mainly on the production of cow’s and sheep’s milk.

Slinteer does not pose a health risk for humans, but can transmit it. Contaminated can have a car, clothing or shoes. This is one of the reasons why preventive measures are limited to people with farm animals. Disinfection is also necessary.

Before entering the teams, farmers had to get the so -called. disinfectant fords. Thus, the excavated pits or structures impregnated with a disinfectant that should be captured by the virus.

Rakyta recalls that in the past such forfies were common. It was a prevention of pigs or other diseases. « The current situation requires a much greater self -discipline. The company management also requires pressure on our own people and business partners to maintain and respect the measures, » he says.

They also appeal to the dressers in the dressing room to change into work clothes, for example, that they do not come to breeding in overalls, where they fed sheep or pigs at home.

If the situation underestimates one, they will pay for another

The Farm in the Holy Cross is trying to protect its breeding from the introduction of the virus as much as possible. They also took steps beyond the measures. The animals from the loose enclosure and the blanket pulled into the yards. They wanted to prevent possible contact with wildlife and potential transmission of the virus.

They also decided to clean the entire vehicles. Brody is only used for disinfection of wheels, which, according to Rakyt, does not have to be sufficient.

« Mud or manure can be glued to the tractor, and this can be a potential risk. Therefore, we are spraying every car with a disinfectant. This is not entirely 100 %, but the likelihood of capturing the virus is increased, » he says. At the entrance to the farm they have a person who manages spraying.

The important thing is that all breeders and farmers in the region are respected by security regulations. If one is wrong, the others can pay for it. Some cooperatives feed on milk and dairy products and come into contact with the same customers of their products.
