Abstract

This study was carried out from 10 January to 20 February 2022 in the urban and peri-urban area of Siguiri and aimed to learn about the application of biosecurity measures in some fish farms in Siguiri. To this end, 6 fish farms were surveyed on the basis of a targeted sampling based on the criteria of accessibility, cooperation of fish farmers and the functional state of these farms, and 20 biosecurity variables were taken in to account. Of all the fish farms surveyed, only one (1) farm applied biosecurity measures, i.e. 15%, and the other five (5) saidtheyhad no knowledge of biosecurity, i.e. 85%.  In conclusion, the knowledge and application of biosecurity measures could undoubtedly help prevent diseases in fish farms, event houghthey are rare, and improve the productivity of fish farmers.
