Key result
While region, number of calves born, forage plot size, and cattle purchased significantly predicted annual cattle income (P<0.001), individual biosecurity practices were not significant predictors.
Population
Smallholder farmers (n = 240) from four regions in Cambodia raising cattle

Low baseline knowledge scores reveal critical biosecurity education gaps; leaves open whether targeted training improves compliance.
Cross-Sectional (n=240)
Yes
p-value: p=<0.001
Basic biosecurity practices are lacking among Cambodian smallholder farmers, and individual biosecurity practices were not significant predictors of cattle income, highlighting the need for a coordinated national biosecurity campaign.
Young et al. (2017) conducted a cross-sectional in Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) (n=240). Biosecurity practices and FMD risk management was evaluated on Annual cattle income (p=<0.001). While region, number of calves born, forage plot size, and cattle purchased significantly predicted annual cattle income (P<0.001), individual biosecurity practices were not significant predictors.
