| Title : | DEFINING OPTIMAL LOCATIONS OF ESTABLISHMENTS AND TRANSPORTATION ROUTES FOR TREATMENT AND STORAGE OF ANIMAL WASTE |
| Abstract : | In order to ensure a high level of public health and animal health protection in Bosnia and Herzegovina, it is necessary to improve the existing and/or provide quality management of animal by-products, i.e. to establish an infrastructure for quality and efficient treatment/disposal of animal by-products and waste of animal origin. This implies a wide range of activities in this field, such as measures to improve the legal and institutional framework, better data system management, establishment of by-product management model including transport solutions and technologies and provision of an adequate financial framework and sources of funding. At this point, the issue of management of animal by-products and animal waste in Bosnia and Herzegovina has not been adequately addressed and poses a threat to both human and animal health. In this regard, establishment of a sustainable management system for animal by-products and animal waste is of utmost importance for further development of BiH agriculture. Inadequate management of animal by-products and animal waste poses a huge threat to the environment, endangering natural resources, watercourses, sources of drinking water, soil and atmosphere. This paper presents some of the activities related to establishment of this infrastructure, relating to the methodology of selection of locations for central plant and intermediate establishments for treatment and collection of animal waste and the definition of optimal transport routes and transport capacities. |
