Bovine Johne's disease (BJD)
The new BJD approach
On 31 March 2008 the way bovine Johne's disease (BJD) is managed in NSW changed, to introduce risk-based trading. This is in keeping with the less regulated approach for managing BJD in Australia, which has been agreed nationally by cattle industries, governments and stakeholders.
