The annual value of UK agriculture to the national economy is in the region of £122 billion (2018, DEFRA). The value of the UK poultry meat production sector alone, the second largest in Europe, to the UK economy increased by ~ 9% to £2.6billion (2018) with 1.24 billion birds producing in the region of 1.8 million tonnes of meat. This is a sector seeing c...

Campylobacter is the most common cause of food borne-illness in the UK. An EU baseline study estimated prevelance in broilers of 75 percent and in boiler carcasses of 86 percent (ESFA, 2011). It is responsible for over 80 deaths p.a. in the UK, over 65 percent of which is derived from campylobacter infected chicken (FSA, 2011). This project will develop t...
