Figure 1. Distribution of inspections to different fields

The increased number of inspections focused on animal welfare, with 1 040 more supervisions in this field compared to 2012. Other priority areas were the processing industry, fish health and import of vegetables.

Fewer border controls

In 2013, the NFSA performed 9.7 per cent fewer controls of plant consignments from countries outside EEA. For other activities the changes were small.

Satisfying state of health

The state of health for plants, fish and land animals in Norway remains good. The NFSA experienced minor changes in the reported infections of livestock, locations infected with fish disease and detection of plant pests. However, salmon lice are still a problem in the fish farming industry, and new diseases among pigs and poultry emerged in 2013.
