Poultry producers are being urged to download the free Livestock Protect App to track the rapid spread of Avian Influenza (AI) and strengthen on-farm biosecurity as cases continue to rise across the UK.
The app provides real-time alerts on local disease risks and practical biosecurity guidance, helping farmers respond quickly to outbreaks. With Avian Influenza Prevention Zones (AIPZ) now covering the entire UK, staying informed has never been more critical.
Neal Samet, Livetec general manager and director, explains the Livestock Protect App equips poultry keepers with the knowledge required to comply with Government regulations and take swift action to safeguard flocks.
“The app has been developed to send real-time outbreak and zone updates straight to users’ smartphones, allowing for informed, but rapid decision-making,” he says.
“Our priority is to ensure every poultry keeper has access to the most accurate and up-to-date information to protect their flock.
“This is why the app is designed to simplify the notification process and ensure users have the latest data and guidance at their fingertips.”
Mr Samet adds: “Given our frontline experience in the fight against AI and witnessing the impact of the disease on businesses and individuals, I’d strongly encourage keepers of all sizes to download the app.”
The Livestock Protect app is now free to download on both Apple and Android devices, visit the App Store or Google Play Store to download.
