  9. Sources of on-farm risk Food safety • Contamination of product • Spoilage of product • Pathogens

  10. Sources of on-farm risk Environment • Odours • Water pollution • Carbon • Noise

  11. Sources of on-farm risk Biosecurity • Exotic diseases • Endemic diseases • Weeds • Pests

  12. Sources of on-farm risk Animal welfare • Husbandry practices • Production diseases • Land transport • Bobby calves

  13. Sources of on-farm risk Occupational Health & Safety • Skills • Knowledge • Equipment • Zoonotic diseases

  14. How do dairy farmers manage these risks? • As part of their everyday activities • Structured risk management programs • identification • analysis • evaluation • treatment • monitoring • review • Performance measured against agreed standards

  15. Verification of compliance Self assessment Environmental protection agencies Local government officials Dairy company field officers State dairy food authorities Private veterinarians State government DPI’s Animal welfare agencies Vocational trainers

  16. Dairy assurance activities SCOPE AND FREQUENCY Day to day - embedded in work place activities Control Self Assessment – driven by risk profile and manager’s span of control Internal and External auditing – sampling and verification, aimed at Policy and Standards compliance, and identifying system weaknesses

  17.

  19. A “Whole of Chain” Approach • All parties responsible • Understanding needs and performance • One-step forward • One-step back • Consistent Minimum Mandatory Standards • Partnership Industry & Government

  21. ON FARM DAIRY QA PROGRAM Trade and other commercial/regulatory issues • Eg. • Antibiotic residues • Milk quality • BJD 3 step plan • Animal welfare (Cattle code) • Environmental Issues • OH&S Food Safety Program Mandatory (Dairy)

  22. On Farm Dairy QA Program Trade and other commercial elements Food Safety Program (FSP) Mandatory Dairy elements Hygienic milking Milking premises Meat elements Ag + Vet + Chemicals Water supply + quality Cleaning or Sanitizing Micro biological Contamination Traceability and Records Personal competency Stock feeds

  23. Dairy Food Safety Compliance Framework DAFF • FSANZ Food Safety Standards • Export Control Orders • Interpretive Guidelines • Standard Operating Procedures • Steering Committees • Working Groups STATE DAIRY/FOOD AUTHORITY • State Legislation • Regulations/Codes • of Practice AUTHORISED OFFICER APPROVED AUDITOR • National Auditor Competencies • Contract - Deed of Undertaking Harmonisation of Export & Domestic Standards

  24. Farm Audits *SRAs require audits at least every 24 months In 2010-11 LPA listed 190,801 program participants, with 5,819 inspections/audits (3%) Dairy had 42% on- farm FSP audits

  25. Verification of Dairy FSPs • SRAs undertake desk reviews yearly • SRAs undertake 5% verification audits of all dairy farms at least every 3 years • In 2009/2010, 195 verification audits (2.5%) • SRAs - national dairy farm auditor workshop held every 6 months - covers issues arising from audits, consistency of interpretation, implementation and reporting
