On the occasion of World Plant Health Day, it is essential to remember that protecting plant health goes beyond terrestrial ecosystems. Ecosystems are deeply interconnected: there is no clear boundary between land and marine environments. Plant health concerns all living systems and plays a decisive role in maintaining the overall balance of natural environments.

Indoor air quality plays a decisive role in both animal and human health in livestock production. Farming activities and veterinary environments generate large amounts of airborne microorganisms that can spread through the air. This mode of transmission is frequently associated with the emergence and spread of highly infectious diseases.
