	abstract = {New Zealand’s geographical isolation and border controls have kept New Zealand relatively
free from pests and diseases that commonly affect aquaculture production elsewhere in the
world. However, biosecurity and biological threats remain a threat to New Zealand’s
aquaculture and fisheries industries, as this can lead to losses in production and potential
impacts to trade and tourism caused by emerging or introduced pests and diseases. These
risks can be managed through the implementation of border controls, marine users taking
steps to prevent pest and disease spread and farm operators using farm management practices
such as good husbandry and having on-farm biosecurity plans.
The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) and Aquaculture NZ have collaborated on a
project entitled “Identification of On-Farm Aquaculture Biosecurity Management Options”.
The project provides options to enhance on-farm biosecurity protection for New Zealand’s
commercial and non-commercial aquaculture sectors.
In order to develop the on-farm biosecurity management options, it was first necessary to
understand the current farming practices, on-farm biosecurity management, and concerns and
perceptions of the farmers themselves. MPI contracted Coast and Catchment Ltd to carry out
this research with the in-kind support from Aquaculture NZ.
The research findings presented in this report have been combined with the assessment of
information on the potential biosecurity risks to the aquaculture industry and trout producers
(organisms and pathways). MPI, with input from the aquaculture industry, and trout
producers have developed, a set of relevant best practice options to inform on-farm
biosecurity management. The final product is practical and effective in preventing and
reducing pests and diseases impacting commercial and non-commercial aquaculture facilities.
Uptake of options can flow into updated industry environmental management systems,
sustainable management frameworks, operational procedures and any future biosecurity
planning whether voluntary or more formally agreed readiness and response measures as part
of a Government Industry Agreement.
Good biosecurity management at the farm level both strengthens the sectors’ role as
responsible users of the aquatic environment and maintains New Zealand’s reputation for high
environmental performance. The Identification of On-Farm Aquaculture Biosecurity
Management Options project supports the sustainable growth of the aquaculture sector and
non-commercial sectors.},
