I read an interesting article today on Science news online. With the BSE and bird flu incidents in the UK I thought I should share what I read and contribute to this important area.
Managing sewage is important in our homes and so it should be in the places we house our livestock especially if they end up serving the human food chain.

Raw sewage both human and animal contains a high level of microorganisms and can also in the right conditions provide a conducive rapid breeding ground for Thypus sp, Staphylococcus sp, Bacillus sp, Campylobacter sp, Salmonella sp, Escherichia sp, Listeria sp, Pneumococcus sp, and much more.
Anyone got any other suggestions on how the spread of livestock microbial disease can be limited, managed and controlled effectively
