Shang, Lijun and Ibbotson, Olivia (2026) Biosecurity risks threaten agribusiness. The Animal Echo. pp. 1-4.
Under the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention, biosecurity is defined as the 'protection, control, and accountability measures implemented to prevent the loss, theft, misuse, diversion or intentional release of biological agents and toxins, and related resources as well as unauthorised access to, retention, or transfer of such materials'. This broad, governance-focused definition reflects the importance of safeguarding biological resources across all sectors - including agribusiness, where biosecurity risks are increasing rapidly. These risks are driven by interrelated factors such as climate change, growing human and animal populations, rising demand for food and advances in science and technology.
