Seven departments of the Caribbean region were represented at a training course which included detailed information on the nasal mucus of the disease.
Organised by the Colombian Agricultural Institute, the event has been part of a series of on-going efforts to improve knowledge transfer on the subject of BSE for fourteen years.
