Abstract

Live bird markets serve as aggregation points for birds from diverse geographic areas, creating potential hotspot for disease transmission. High levels of human and live bird movement, low hygiene and sanitation awareness, and inadequate implementation of biosecurity practices can increase the risk of disease transmission. Empirical data on the implementation of biosecurity practices at the trader level in live bird markets in Bogor remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate the level of biosecurity implementation among traders at live bird markets in Bogor City and Bogor Regency. A total of 15 traders were selected and assessed using a checklist a dapt Biosecurity levels were categorized as good, moderate, and poor level based on the assessment result. The result showed that biosecurity level among traders in live bird markets were moderate (100%). However, a relatively high degree of non-compliance was still observed across all biosecurity components. Key gaps included lack of bird health inspection, absence of isolation cages, high stocking density, poor hygiene practices, and inadequate waste management. These findings indicate that biosecurity practices in live bird markets remain suboptimal and require improvement through enhancing traders’ knowledge and awareness, improving market management by market authorities, and stronger regulatory enforcement by government. This study provides practical evidence to inform national policy development, particularly in strengthening biosecurity standards, regulatory frameworks, and targeted interventions for live bird market management in Indonesia.
