Description:
Ireland has possibly the highest rate of Verotoxigenic E. coli (VTEC) in the world. The public health priority is to protect the Irish population from potentially devastating infectious diseases. The reservoir of this infectious disease is mainly ruminant animals, so control of this illness must involve the agricultural sector. Food Harvest 2020 sets out to improve the Irish agricultural economy. Its success depends on being Smart and Green and achieving Growth. However, Ireland’s green reputation could be seriously damaged by an outbreak affecting visitors to the country.
