The objective of the G‐RAID project was the mutual exchange of knowledge between the consortium members on the development of generic risk assessment (RA) tools for animal disease incursion. Seven generic RA tools were compared considering objectives, inp ...
Avian influenza surveillance data should be submitted from Member States to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) using the EFSA Standard Sample Description version 2 (SSD2). For data transmission purposes, EFSA created aMicrosoft OfficeExcel‐based ma ...
Avian influenza surveillance data should be submitted twice per year from Member States to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) using the EFSA Standard Sample Description version 2 (SSD2). Specific guidelines to support reporting countries with this ...
Hunting statistics can be suitable to determine wild boar density estimates if a calibration with an accepted rigorous method is performed. Here, densities calculated from drive counts during collective drive hunting activities are compared against densit ...
The ENETWILD consortium implementedtheEFSA‐funded project “Wildlife: collecting and sharing data on wildlife populations, transmitting animal diseases agents”,whose main objective is to collect wild boardensity, hunting and occurrence dataand model specie ...
Mappingthe ‘data sources’ on animal diseases,in each European Union (EU) Member State, is one of the activities of EFSA's SIGMA 1, 2 project. The aim of this activity is to identify the central competent authorities responsible for managing the data ...
The main objectives of EFSA's activities on emerging risks are:(i) to identify emerging risks in the areas within the remit of EFSA;and (ii) to develop and improve emerging risk identification methodologies and approaches. The current technical repor ...
In October 2018 the ENETWILD consortium created suitability maps based on available data on wild boar occurrence at 10 km square resolution and initial version of abundance models based on hunting statistics at NUTS3 and NUTS2 resolution, that were statis ...
This report is the outcome of an EFSA procurement (NP/EFSA/GMO/2016/01) reviewing relevant scientific information on ncRNA and on RNA interference(RNAi) that could support the food and feed risk assessment of ncRNA‐based genetically modified (GM) plants. ...
The SIGMA project aims at supporting the development and implementation of technical features with the goal of reducing the burden for the MSs to submit ad hoc animal disease and population data to EFSA. This document reports the work that has been cond ...
