The Enhanced Abattoir Surveillance (EAS) program provided feedback on sheep health conditions and diseases to South Australian producers between 2017 and 2021. 

Watch the videos focusing on common sheep health conditions developed by Livestock SA’s Livestock Biosecurity Extension Team. Each video looks at the prevalence of a condition in South Australian farms, the impact it has on the carcass, treatment and prevention options, and a producer case study showing how the EAS program data helped them identify and manage the condition.

This 6-part video series is a collaboration between Department of Primary Industries and Regions, Red Meat and Wool Growth Program, Livestock SA, Animal Health Australia and University of Adelaide. See all videos here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLz96-ojJbATQ0V9_QQvQwpmZLFBPwaCMR
