These technical guidelines have been developed to support sections of FAO's Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries addressing responsible fisheries management (Article 7), aquaculture development (Article 9), international trade (Article 11) and fisheries research (Article 12). The objective of these guidelines is to assist countries in reducing the risk of introduction and spread of serious transboundary aquatic animal diseases. Although they deal primarily with safe transboundary movement at the international level, they are also applicable to domestic movements between different provinces, geographical areas or zones of differing disease status.--Publisher's description.
Includes bibliographical references.
Introduction -- Application of the code of conduct for responsible fisheries to the safe movement of live aquatic animals -- Guidance for the development of aquatic animal health programmes -- National strategies on aquatic animal health and biosecurity -- Farm-level health management and biosecurity programmes -- Precautionary approach.
