This paper discusses the application of compartmentalisation in the Thai commercial poultry industry. The concept was adopted to address Thailand's inability to export fresh poultry meat because of endemic avian influenza. Owing to the nature of compartmentalisation, implementation required a strong partnership between government and the private sector (the Thai poultry exporters). The paper describes the processes implemented to ensure that appropriate risk mitigation measures were in place and to guarantee the continued biosecurity of the compartments. Other Members of the World Organisation for Animal Health may be able to adapt the compartment system used in Thailand to their own similar situations and the formal international recognition of such systems would be beneficial.
本文探讨了分区管理在泰国商业家禽业中的应用。由于禽流感流行，泰国无法出口新鲜禽肉，因此采用了这一概念。由于分区管理的性质，实施需要政府与私营部门（泰国家禽出口商）建立强有力的伙伴关系。本文描述了为确保采取适当的风险缓解措施并保证各分区持续的生物安全而实施的过程。世界动物卫生组织的其他成员国或许能够将泰国使用的分区系统应用于自身类似情况，而这种系统获得正式的国际认可将大有裨益。
