1 Towards a comprehensive HPAI control program A multi-intervention pilot trial in Cipunagara, Subang Bogor, 2 November 2011

2 Introduction

3 HPAI control  An effective program to control HPAI in Indonesia should have multiple components  Surveillance / Outbreak investigations  Vaccination  Biosecurity  Culling / Movement restrictions  It should target all poultry sectors (I – IV)

4 Rationale for multi-intervention approach  HPAI control measures in Indonesia are often used in isolation  PDSR in sector IV  Vaccination in sector IV  Vaccination in commercial sectors  Certification of sector I farms/Compartmentalization & zoning  HPAI virus amplification and transmission occurs in all sectors and is dependent on many risk factors  Therefore multiple control measures need to be applied simultaneously in all sectors

5 Objectives  To implement a multiple intervention strategy for the control of HPAI in a small, well-defined area  To limit the circulation of HPAI and to reduce the chance of new introductions of HPAI  To study the feasability and sustainability of specific intervention strategies  To encourage participation of all relevant stakeholders  To liase with other donors that may assist in the implementation of specific modules

6 Selection of study area Cipunagara, Subang  Based upon profiling results of Purwakarta and Subang districts  Large poultry industry with many breeder and broiler farms  Important supplier of poultry to Jabodetabek  Known history of HPAI outbreaks  Good collaboration with local veterinary services  Close to Provincial Laboratory

7 – 8 Breeder farms – 6 PS – 2 GPS – 25 broiler farms – 7 Slaughterhouses / collectorhouses – 1 hatchery – ± 70 duck flocks

8 Proposed activities in Cipunagara  Phase I – description of the actual situation  Surveillance (Sector I – IV)  Biosecurity surveys (Sector I – IV)  Poultry health surveys (Sector III – IV)  Contact structure survey (Sector I – III)  Phase II - analysis of the data  Phase III – design and implementation of intervention strategies, continued surveillance

9 Realized activities  Surveys  AI surveillance: sector I – III, nomadic ducks, poultry collecting facilities  Biosecurity: sector III & IV  Poultry health: sector III & IV  Contact structure: sector III  Only few interventions implemented  Sector III: Biosecurity & poultry management improvement through biosecurity advisors  Sector IV: Biosecurity improvement through village meetings, posters & booklets

16 Surveillance results PS/GPS seroprevalence Breeder Farm Sampling month Number of sampled flocks Sample seroprevalence Mean HI titer ± S.D. HI ≥ 2 4 (%) A September ’10 36 67% 3.56±1.92 B October ‘10 4 100% 7.07±0.84 C January ‘11 12 91% 6.37±2.27 D January ‘11 12 99% 8.00±1.33 E April ‘11 28 99% 7.58 ± 1.42 Note: All collected tracheal swab samples were PCR negative

17 AI surveillance Conclusions (1)  No evidence that ducks play an important role in HPAI transmission  No HPAI H5 virus shedding detected  Positive serology?  Not determined whether this is HPAI (H5N1)  Possibility of cross-reactions in HI test have not been excluded  Evidence for other Influenza A viruses  Need further characterization  Analysis shows the presence of H3N4 and low pathogenic H5 virus

18 AI surveillance Conclusions (2)  Three outbreaks on broiler farms show that the HPAI virus is present and circulating in sector 3 in Cipunagara  No evidence for the presence of HPAI in collector- or slaughterhouses  In contrast to the findings of PCF surveillance in DKI Jakarta (Civas, 2007-2010)  Limited interaction with sector I  Sampling was not under our control and non-random  Validity of results is therefore limited

19 Biosecurity improvement in sector 3

20 Biosecurity on sector 3 farms Activities  Baseline survey on biosecurity and production  25 farms were assessed for the level of biosecurity present on the farm  Production parameters (mortality, slaughter weight, FCR) were collected  Biosecurity advisors  Teams of trained DINAS staff visited farms weekly  Advised farmers on biosecurity, poultry health & management  Supervised syndromic surveillance  Changes in biosecurity uptake and production parameters were monitored

21 Biosecurity on sector 3 farms Biosecurity improvement (examples) Biosecurity measureStart program (% of farms) End program (% of farms) Readily adopted Stop sign at entrance40%100% Cleaning up spilled feed40%96% Hand washing facilities48%96% Foot bath20%77% Poorly adopted Safe storage and disposal of manure0% Cleaning & disinfection of vehicles0%9% Availability of farm clothing4%9% Making the poultry house wild bird proof16%41%

22 Biosecurity on sector 3 farms Performance Index

23 Biosecurity on sector 3 farms C onclusions  Biosecurity advisors appeared to have positive effect on farm biosecurity and production  Average number of biosecurity measures adopted on the farms increased from 14/32 to 23/32  Average performance index (IP) increased from 302 to 373 (not significant)  Production parameters dependent on many factors (i.e. feed quality, DOC quality etc), therefore impossible to say if increased IP resulted from advisor program  Farmers see poor financial returns of broiler farming as the biggest obstacle for increased implementation of biosecurity measures

24 Contact structure of sector 3 farms

25 Contact structure of broiler farms Activities  Over a 53 day period all movements on and off 20 broiler farms were recorded in a logbook  Involvement of vehicles & equipment  Contact with poultry before, during or after the visit  Origin and destination of the visit  Visits were classified as having low, medium or high risk of HPAI transmission

26 Contact structure of broiler farms Main results  A total of 2966 visits were recorded on 20 farms over a 53 day period  Average of 143 visits per farm or 2.8 visits/farm/day  21% of visits were for social reasons  52% of visits involved a vehicle; 18% of visits involved equipment  76% of visits originated from the same village  55% of visits had contact with poultry on the farm  6% of visits were considered high risk for HPAI transmission, associated with movement of live poultry or poultry manure  Farms received an average of 7 visits to collect poultry

27 Contact structure of broiler farms Conclusions  Relatively high proportion of social visits which can and should be restricted  Majority of contacts take place over relatively short distances → implications for disease spread  Although a relatively low proportion of visits are “high risk”, these are mainly associated with poultry collection  Poultry collection for slaughter takes place over many visits (average 7/farm) with increased risk for disease transmission  Farmers should be encouraged to use all-in all-out

28 Biosecurity of village poultry

29 Village poultry biosecurity Activities  Baseline survey to assess  Biosecurity measures which are present  Importance of village poultry keeping  Socializations on biosecurity through village meetings, posters and booklets  Follow-up survey to measure changes in knowledge, attitudes and practices

30 Village poultry biosecurity Uptake of socialization tools % of respondents Attended village meetings61% Saw poster72% Read poster45% Saw booklet56% Read booklet37%

31 Village poultry biosecurity Changes in biosecurity practices Practice1 st survey2 nd survey Change clothes before and after handling poultry 19%35% Wash hands before and after handling poultry 91%94% Bury dead poultry63%76% Throw dead poultry into river24%20% Report sudden death of poultry12%15%

32 Village poultry biosecurity Conclusions  Use of posters and booklets as socialization tools should be re-evaluated  Socializations by spoken word are probably more effective than using written socialization tools  Effectiveness of the socialization campaign with regard to changed practices seems to have been limited

33 Conclusions Multi-intervention pilot

34 Multi-intervention pilot Conclusions  In this study there is no evidence for ducks as a spreader of H5N1 HPAI virus  3 outbreaks in broiler farms were observed from at least two different sources  Farmers were willing to introduce low cost biosecurity measures  Village socialization appears to have limited effect

35 Multi-intervention pilot Lessons learned Multi intervention strategies can only be developed with the involvement of all stakeholders Incentives for Sector 1 need to be developed to participate in developing intervention strategies Clear mandates for Dinas Peternakan for disease control in commercial poultry are lacking
