Research Proposal
3. Summary of the Joint Research Project Proposal (Max. 800 words) Word count: 612
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) is endemic in Indonesian poultry and individual
cases of (fatal) infections in humans are reported regularly. The biggest threat of the virus, however,
is its capability to re-assort with other Influenza viruses creating the potential for an Influenza
pandemic in humans. In recent years several attempts have been initiated to eliminate HPAIv from
the Indonesian poultry population. Despite these efforts the poultry sector is still confronted with
outbreaks and, more importantly, fatal cases in humans still occur. Moreover, the disease is moving
further eastwards. Although effective vaccines are available, implementation of vaccination
programmes has not resulted in elimination of HPAIv. Moreover, eradication by culling infected
flocks, which appeared successful in e.g. Thailand, has not been implemented in Indonesia. In
addition, cooperation between veterinary authorities and poultry industry in the control of HPAI is
suboptimal in Indonesia.
To improve the HPAI situation control measures that fit the Indonesian situations have to be
developed. For that purpose it is essential to understand 1) the (importance of) transmission routes
of HPAIv within and between the various sectors of the poultry husbandry and 2) the incentives in
the poultry chain that act as driving forces for the contacts between the different parts of that chain.
If this would be known, it can be examined how changes in incentives can affect the contacts within
the poultry chain and, consequently, the transmission of HPAIv.
In this project first a detailed description of the poultry husbandry in Indonesia will be made,
distinguished in broiler type chickens, layer type chickens, ducks and backyard poultry. Next, for
each of these poultry chains the existing contacts between farms within the chain, but also with
farms of other poultry chains will be identified and quantified (frequency at which the contacts
occur) in afield study. Based on this information a mathematical model will be developed describing
the contact structure of the Indonesian poultry husbandry and the transmission within this contact
structure. To establish relevant transmission routes between various parts of the poultry chain a
phylogenetic analysis of HPAIv isolates that have been collected in the past 5 years at several
locations on West-Java will be performed. This molecular epidemiological work will be extended
using isolates collected in a field study in the same area that will be used to establish the contact
structure of the Indonesian poultry husbandry. In addition to this information, literature and expert
knowledge will be used to parameterize the model. The mathematical model will be (in part)
validated using prevalences of infection observed in other field studies.
On the basis of this model, a value chain analysis of Indonesian poultry production will be
performed. It has been used successfully to identify the extent in which animal diseases influence
actors in the chain elsewhere. Here, relationships, characteristics and dynamics that take place
among different actors will be systematically summarized. Next, stochastic simulation models will
be created for the main actors in which the economic effect of measures can be evaluated, including
changes of the contacts between farms and improved bio-security. Moreover, the effect of changes

in value (money and commodity) exchange in the poultry chain on the contact structure can be
investigated. To estimate the reaction of the chain as a whole upon implementation of measures to
improve control of HPAIv, agent-based modelling will be applied in which the agents represent
various actors in the Indonesian poultry chain. Finally, the JRP addresses the question which
organisational forms of the Indonesian poultry supply chain and government intervention provide
the most efficient way of coordination under the conditions of food safety and security. Principal-
agent theory and cost-benefit analysis are used for supply chain optimisation under different
scenarios.

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) is endemic in Indonesian poultry and (fatal) cases
of infections in humans are reported regularly. The biggest threat of the virus, however, is its
capability to re-assort with other Influenza viruses creating the potential for a pandemic in humans.
In recent years several attempts have been initiated to eliminate HPAIv from Indonesia. Despite
these efforts the poultry sector is still confronted with outbreaks. Moreover, the disease is moving
eastwards. Although effective vaccines are available (Bouma et al., 2009, Poetri et al., 2009)
vaccination has not resulted in elimination of HPAIv. Moreover, eradication by culling infected
flocks, which appeared successful in e.g. Thailand (Tiensin et al, 2005), has not been implemented in
Indonesia. In addition, cooperation between veterinary authorities and poultry industry in the
control HPAI is suboptimal.
b. Objective(s)
To improve the HPAI situation control measures that fit the Indonesian situations have to be
developed. For that purpose it is essential to understand 1) the (importance of) transmission routes
of HPAIv within and between the various poultry production chains (broilers, layers, ducks and
backyard poultry) and 2) the incentives in the poultry chains that act as driving forces for the
contacts between the different parts of that chain. Next, it can be examined how changes in
incentives and changes in the structure of the poultry husbandry can affect the contacts within and
between the poultry chains and, consequently, the transmission of HPAIv.
Approach
A detailed description of the poultry sectors in Indonesia will be made. Next, for each poultry sector
the existing contacts between farms within that sector and to other sectors will be identified and
quantified. Based on this information a mathematical model will be developed describing the
contact structure of the Indonesian poultry husbandry and the transmission rate of HPAIv within
this contact structure will be estimated. To establish relevant transmission routes between various
parts of the poultry chain a phylogenetic analysis of HPAIv isolates that have been collected in the
past 5 years and isolates that will be collected in the field study of this project will be done. In
addition to this information, literature and expert knowledge will be used to parameterize the

model. The mathematical model will be (in part) validated using prevalences of infection observed
in the field (including previous work).
On the basis of this model, a value chain analysis of Indonesian poultry production will be
performed. It has been used successfully to identify the extent in which animal diseases influence
actors in the chain elsewhere. Here, relationships, characteristics and dynamics that take place
among different actors will be systematically summarized. Next, stochastic simulation models will
be created for the main actors in which the economic effect of measures can be evaluated, including
changes of the contacts between farms and improved bio-security. Moreover, the effect of changes
in value (money and commodity) exchange in the poultry chain on the contact structure can be
investigated. To estimate the reaction of the chain as a whole upon implementation of measures to
improve control of HPAIv, agent-based modelling will be applied in which the agents represent
various actors in the Indonesian poultry chain.
Methods
Contact structure
Literature review and elicitation of expert knowledge will be used to identify the contact types that
could potentially transfer HPAIv. According to poultry type, four production chains will be
distinguished: broilers, layers, ducks and backyard chicken. Local poultry experts will be
interviewed to obtain a comprehensive list of contacts to and from each of the farm types in a
poultry production chain. Contacts may be associated with the transport of live birds, persons,
materials, feed, etc. Next, literature will be reviewed regarding information on the potential of these
contacts to transmit infectious poultry diseases. Finally, these results will be used to develop a
structured questionnaire to collect data on the rate of contacts between poultry farms in West-Java.
This questionnaire will be validated in a pilot study. Next, an area in West-Java/Banten will be
designated. Poultry farms in the area will be visited and classified according to their poultry type.
The location of the farm will be recorded in a Geographical Information System and herd
characteristics such as type of poultry, number of birds, biosecurity level, etc. will be recorded. Next,
farmers will be interviewed to obtain an overview of incoming and outgoing contacts according to
the structured questionnaire made under a; type of contact (for example live birds, feed trucks,
technical personel, manure disposal, etc), where do they come from (poultry farm yes/no, type of
poultry, poultry sector). A logbook will be provided to the farmers to record the contacts. Poultry
collector houses/live bird markets will also be included in the study, although they may be outside
the chosen area. From the interviews and the log books the contact rate can be estimated and risk
factors associated with the contact rate can be estimated, such as biosecurity level and poultry type.
Using the data collected in the field a model will be constructed describing both the contact and
spatial network of the Indonesian poultry population.
Molecular Epidemiology
HPAIv samples collected in the framework of the Indonesian Dutch partnership will be available
for the project. The sample bank includes samples collected at poultry collector houses from
incoming poultry. The databank of the samples comprises epidemiological data such as origin of the
poultry type, geographical location of the farm of origin and date of collection. The samples are
available for full genome sequencing. Sequences will be compared by up-to-date phylogenetic
analytic techniques to assess genetic variation. Next analyses will be performed to determine
whether genotypes cluster according geographically and or according to poultry type.
An area of West-Java will be designated (same area as in project 1). Poultry farms in the area will be

_
________________________________________________________________________________________
visited and classified according to their poultry type (broiler, layer, duck, back yard) and sector
(biosecurity I, II, III, IV). The location of the farm will be pointed in a Geographical Information
System and herd characteristics such as type of poultry, number of birds, biosecurity level, etc. will
be recorded. Farmers will be asked to notify IPB (the PhD student) in case the birds show signs of
systemic or respiratory disease or increased mortality. Upon notification samples will be collected
from 10 birds in the acute phase of disease (those showing typical signs) and recently deceased
birds will be submitted for necropsy. Samples will be pooled and tested for the presence of AIv by
RT-PCR. Clinical samples positive for AIv will be stored at -80 0C. Farms within a 3 km radius of the
infected farm and farms with known dangerous contacts will be visited asking for the presence of
disease. In case disease is reported, samples will be collected in a similar way as described above.
Samples will be collected for a period of one to one and a half year depending on the number of
positive farms.
Whole genomes of isolates will be sequenced and the genetic diversity will be analysed to create
phylogenetic trees of the viruses (as in Bataille et al., 2011). Next, genetic data will be combined
with epidemiologic data to refine the tree of transmission events (as in Ypma et al., 2012).
will be derived from the economic analysis as well as the questionnaires on motivation and
behaviour of poultry farmers with regard to prevention of viral poultry diseases and the
information on contact structure and spread of HPAI as is studied in elsewhere in the JRP.

Leaders and abstracts) (Max. 400 words per project) Word count: 1571
Project 61-SPIN-JRP - 1 Unravelling the contacts within and between Indonesian poultry
sectors
Project Leaders : Prof. J.A. Stegeman and Dr. Y. Ridwan
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 is endemic in Indonesian poultry and the
disease causes considerable economic losses to poultry keepers. Besides the economic damage,
however, the virus is important from the perspective of public health. Effective control of HPAIv
H5N1 in the poultry population is pivotal to reduce the risks posed to humans.
Control programmes based on vaccination or stamping out are either not effective or not feasible in
the Indonesian situation. In order to develop more effective control programs it is crucial to
understand the transmission network, e.g. the quantitative contribution of the relevant
transmission routes of HPAIv within and between the sectors of the poultry husbandry. Once this is
known, one can examine the effect of interventions in simulation studies. As a first step to gain such
understanding in this project the contact structure of the Indonesian poultry husbandry is
quantified.
Local poultry experts will be interviewed to obtain a comprehensive list of contacts to and from
each of the farm types (broilers, layers, ducks and backyard) in a poultry production chain. Next,
literature will be reviewed regarding information on the potential of these contacts to transmit
infectious poultry diseases. These results will be used to develop a structured questionnaire and a
logbook to collect data on the rate of contacts between poultry farms in West-Java.
An area in West-Java/Banten will be designated and relevant contact information will be collected
from farms in this area by interview and log book. Poultry collector houses/live bird markets will
also be included in the study, although they may be outside the chosen area. In addition the contact

_
________________________________________________________________________________________
pattern of persons visiting farms (for example feed suppliers, veterinarians, etc) will also be
examined. Analysis of these data will reveal the rate of contacts that could potentially transfer HPAIv
1) between farms within the same poultry production chain (broilers, layers, ducks, backyard), 2)
between farms in different poultry production chains and 3) to and within poultry collector houses
and live bid markets is estimated. Next the effect of various factors, such as poultry type or poultry
sector (biosecurity level I, II, III and IV) will be estimated. Finally, a contact network will be created
including both the contact and spatial components of the Indonesian poultry population.
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 was first detected in 2003 and since that
year became endemic in Indonesian poultry. The disease causes considerable economic losses to the
poultry industry in particular to the small holders. Besides the economic impact, the virus also
caused 183 human cases of infection of which 156 had a fatal course (WHO March 1, 2012). Effective
control of HPAIv H5N1 in the poultry population is pivotal to reduce the risks posed to humans.
Control programmes based on vaccination or stamping out are either not effective or not feasible in
the Indonesian situation. In order to develop more effective control programs it is crucial to
understand the transmission network, e.g. the quantitative contribution of the relevant
transmission routes of HPAIv within and between the sectors of the poultry husbandry.
Once this is known, one can examine the effect of interventions in simulation studies. As a first step
to gain such understanding in this project the contact structure of the Indonesian poultry
husbandry is quantified.
In project 1 an area in West-Java/Banten programme will be chosen in which epidemiological data
related to contacts between the different components of the poultry chain. In the same area, a
syndromic surveillance programme will be started. In the programme farmers are requested to
submit samples in case clinical signs such increased mortality, drop in (egg) production or reduced
water and food consumption is observed. The samples will be tested for AI in a RT-PCR. Those that
collect samples will be at the footprint of those that collect the epidemiological data in project 1. To
increase willingness to participate the resulting PCR data will be stored anonymously in a database
although geographical location of the farm concerned has to be stored for later analysis. In case of a
positive PCR the neighbouring and contact farms will be visited to evaluate the production numbers
in those farms and collect samples if findings indicate possible AI infection. Poultry collector
houses/live bird markets will also be included in the surveillance, although they may be outside the
chosen area. Positive samples will be processed for whole influenza genome sequencing. The
sequence data will be used in phylogenetics to produce a genetic transmission network.
Project SPIN-61-JRP-3 Epidemiological model for Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus
transmission in Indonesia
Project Leaders : Dr. D. Klinkenberg and Dr. E. Sudarnika
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 is endemic in Indonesian poultry and the
disease causes considerable economic losses to poultry keepers of both professional and back yard
farms. Besides the economic damage, however, the virus is important from the perspective of public
health. Effective control of HPAIv H5N1 in the poultry population is pivotal to reduce the risks posed
to humans.

________________________________________________________________________________________
In this project we will develop an epidemiological model describing the transmission of HPAIv in
the Indonesian poultry husbandry. For that purpose the contact network from project 1 and the
transmission parameters collected in project 2 will be combined. The resulting model can be used to
investigate the effect of changes in contact structure on the transmission of HPAIv.
First, an epidemiological model will be developed that includes the contacts within a poultry
production chain and the interactions that exist with other poultry chains. The poultry production
chains of interest here are those of broilers, layers, ducks and backyard chickens. Besides contacts
within and between these chains, the spatial network of these farms will be included in the model.
Next, the contact rate as established in project 1 will be incorporated into the model as well as the
transmission parameters generated in project 2.
Once the model has been parameterized, it will be (partly) validated using available datasets. Next,
different scenarios will be tested in order to examine the effect of differences in contact rate at the
transmission of HPAIv in Indonesian poultry. In addition the transmission parameters in the model
can also be varied in order to estimate the effect of intervention measures like vaccination or
cleaning and disinfection.
The model will provide insight in the highly complex transmission dynamics within the Indonesian
poultry industry.
Programmes to reduce the level of infection of HPAI in Indonesia are not always successful. Lack of
(proven) economic efficiency of preventive measures explain part of this lack of success. Another
part might be explained by the fact that farmers, especially smaller family farms, might be driven by
other motivators than only economics. In order to correctly estimate the economic effects of
interventions, more viral poultry diseases than only HPAI should be taken into account, e.g. New
Castle Disease and infectious bursal disease. An important part of our in the research approach
towards improved health and safety in Indonesia is the explicit incorporation of economics and
farmer behaviour. By studying the economics of combined prevention of viral poultry diseases in
West Java as well as the motivators for uptake of preventive measures for the different actors in the
Javan poultry value chain, policy making towards an improved and safer Javan poultry chain can be
supported. The proposed research consists of 5 parts. The first subproject aims at the development
of a quantitative value chain simulation model, using existing knowlege about the poultry value
chain in West Java. In the second subproject Monte Carlo simulation models will be developed to
estimate the costs of viral poultry diseases for different stakeholders in the West Javan poultry
chain. These models are based on existing knowledge of the pathogenesis of viral poultry diseases
and existing expertise on the economic effects of these diseases. The developed models will be
applied to estimate the costs and benefits of interventions. In order to be able to predict the
behaviour of stakeholders, in subproject 3 the motivation of stakeholders in West Java to implement
interventions will be studied, based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour and a questionnaire. All
information will be synthesized in an agent-based model (subproject 4) to simulate the effect of
stimulation of interventions over the full poultry chain in West Java.

As a consequence of its vulnerability to avian influenza (AI) the poultry husbandry in Indonesia
should be re-organised so as to optimise the disease prevention efficiency of the chain under the
condition of food security for the population. Since the external effects that are caused by the
current method of poultry production and marketing, are complex, government intervention is
needed. The project addresses the question which organisational forms of the Indonesian poultry
supply chain and government intervention provide the most efficient way of coordination under the
conditions of food safety and security. Principal-agent theory and cost-benefit analysis are used for
supply chain optimisation under different scenarios.

The combination of the projects of this JRP is essential for the overall result. The contact structure
study (project 1) and the study on molecular epidemiology (project 2) provide the cornerstones for
the epidemiological model developed by the postdoc (project 3) to describe the transmission of
HPAIv in the Indonesian poultry husbandry. Next this model will be combined with the value chain
(project 4) and poultry sector models (project 5) to provide insight in the influence of incentives in
the poultry chain that drive the transmission of HPAIv. So, although each of the projects is
scientifically interesting and will provide valuable results on its own, only by the integrated
approach the final objectives of the JRP can be obtained. In this JRP epidemiology, molecular
virology and economics are combined. The added value of that combination of disciplines is that the
epidemiological model is substantiated with the virus transmission pathways as identified by
molecular virology and the economical modelling uses the epidemiological model. The latter implies
that the effect of economics and incentives on the transmission of the virus can be studied in detail.
Without integration this would not be possible.
The poultry sector is important for the development of rural areas in Indonesia. Moreover, poultry is
the main source of animal protein for humans in Indonesia. Results of this JRP will support
programmes for food safety and food security in Indonesia. In addition, this JRP is also relevant for
the veterinary infrastructure in Indonesia. Approximately 70% of the veterinarians in Indonesia are
working in the poultry sector and they can use the information gathered in this JRP to improve their
services, especially because the results will be specific for the Indonesian situation. In addition,
information regarding the contact structure, intervention measures and incentives will not just be
applicable to HPAIv, but also to other (zoonotic) poultry pathogens and so increase the profitability
of poultry production. Consequently, it could increase the incomes of poultry keepers and would
also help in increasing food safety. Further, the results can help improving public health, because if
the spread of HPAI in poultry is reduced, exposure of humans to HPAIv will be reduced as well.
Improvements in the poultry sector will generate additional value in other parts of Indonesian
economy due to multiplier effects.
b. Scientific capacity / institution building;
In this JRP 3 Indonesian veterinarians and 1 Indonesion agricultural economist will be trained to
the PhD level, increasing the capacity of veterinary scientists in Java. Moreover,
the collaboration of the different institutes within this project will help further build the
infrastructure for veterinary sciences in Indonesia. In this project Indonesian researchers will
improve their skills in writing papers for international peer reviewed journals. IPB is in the process
of initiating a zoonoses centre in Bogor and this JRP will be very helpful during the start up of that
centre. There is no doubt that zoonoses are very important in Indonesia (besides HPAI, there is
rabies, brucellosis, tuberculosis and many more), so more knowledge and a better understanding
of zoonoses in the Indonesian context will be very useful for the coutry in facing these problems. In
this respect also the collaboration with the Eijkman Institute is important.
In Indonesia (but thishas improved in The Netherlands only after the Q-Fever epidemic
institutions working on infections in animals are working separately from those working on

infections in humans. However, for the control of zoonotic agents like HPAIv collaboration between
veterinary and medical field is essential; One Health approach. Working together in a project will
help closing this gap.
10. Embedding and additional support (science policy and activities of participating research
groups)
(Max. 500 words) Word count: 195
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in poultry has been a research topic for both Utrecht University
and Central Veterinary Institute for the past decade, as shown by many publications in international
double peer reviewed journals. Moreover, Utrecht University and Wageningen University have
participated in many (inter)national research projects on HPAI. Current focus is in particular on
better understanding of the spread of HPAIv between poultry flocks, which is strongly related to the
topic of this JRP. In addition, Utrecht University has also studied HPAI in tropical areas, Thailand in
particular. This JRP can benefit from that experience. In addition, the Dutch government is planning
activities in Vietnam to help HPAI control there and CVI and Utrecht University will be involved. The
Business Economics group of Wageningen University has a long and outstanding record in the field
of Animal Health Economics and is closely collaborating with Utrecht University.
IPB has worked on Avian Influenza since 2004 and since 2006 there has been collaboration on this
topic between the Dutch research institutes and IPB. It is emphasized that the project will fit well
within IPBs initiative to establish a zoonoses centre. Eijkman Institute has been involved in the
diagnosis and research of human AI cases. Since 2005 there has been a collaboration between the
Dutch and Indonesian government on the development of control strategies againt HPaIv. The
research groups from Lelystad, Utrecht and Bogor in this JRP have been involved in this activity.
After the positive evaluation of our letter of intent a mission to Indonesia was organized to
elaborate SPIN proposal 61-SPIN-JRP. A trip was planned by Ivo Claassen (CVI/WUR), Guus Koch
(CVI/WUR), Robert Paling (BIC/UU), Arjan Stegeman (DGL/UU) and Henk Hogeveen (WU) from 4-9
February 2012, during which a workshop was organized at IPB, Bogor to discuss and elaborate
project ideas. The workshop was attended by the following Indonesian participants: Prof. Dr. drh.
Retno D. Soejoedono, Dr. drh. Denny Widaya Lukman, Dr. drh. Yusuf Ridwan, Dr. Ir. Etih Sudarnika, Dr.

Agungpriyono, Drh. Agus Setiyono, Drh. Fadjar Satrija, Drh. Rahmat Hidayat, Drh. Okti Nadia Poetri.
During a meeting with Dr. Ir Arief Daryanto, MEc and Dr. Desianto Budi Utomo, PhD, involvement of
the Economics Faculty of IPB and PC (Poultry integration company) was discussed. It was agreed
that it would be important to include CP in the project as well, because it would give us a view of the
contact structure within a poultry integration.
In addition to the development of the JRP it was agreed that all candidates need to be of high quality
given the demands of the PhD system at Utrecht University (at the time of submission of the thesis 3
papers must have been accepted by high ranking peer reviewed journals) and Wageningen
University.
During a visit to Ir J. F. Rummenie of the Agricultural office, Dutch Embassy (Feb 8th ,2012) we
explained our proposal and according to Rummenie, the project would fit excellent within his ideas
and plans of improving the structure of poultry husbandry in Indonesia. If these plans would start,
the JRP could well benefit from it and vice versa.
In addition, Professor Muljono, Dr. Artika and Dr. Basuki of the Eijkman Institute in Jakarta were
visited. During this visit we discussed the possibilities of cooperation of the Eijkman Institute in the
molecular work in project 2. It is difficult for the Eijkman Institute to culture animal viruses because
of the hygiene protocols in place. However, sequencing directly from clinical swabs is possible. We
agreed to send a few papers on the molecular work we did in The Netherlands to prof. Muljono
(prof. Muljono was interested upon receipt of these manuscripts) and professor Muljono would
discuss within the institute whether cooperation would be possible. We also met Dr. Prof. Mazurki,
the director of the Eijkman Institute.
Also the FAO office in Jakarta was visited to discuss possibilities for collaboration and data sharing.
The meeting was attended by Jim McGrane (team leader AI Indonesia ), Luuk Schoonman
(veterinary epidemiologist and senior technical advisor), and Mia Kim (molecular virologist, FAO
Rome). FAO supported the development of the JRP as outlined. FAO indicated that they are very
willing to cooperate with the Dutch team and IPB on this topic. Data sharing was not seen as a major
problem but FAO indicated that the Government of Indonesia, department of Agriculture should be
involved.
As follow up of the mission it was agreed that the Dutch researchers would produce a full draft of
the proposal by the beginning of March. This was send to the Indonesia project leaders and the
Eijkman Institute for comments and these comments were incorporated in the proposals.

________________________________________________________________________________________
Finally, Dr. Ir. Arief Daryanto (IPB School of Management) has visited Utrecht and Wageningen from
March 9-14 to work in co-operation with Henk Hogeveen (WU), Ivo Claassen (CVI/WUR) and Erno
Kuiper (WU) on the finalization of the setup of projects 4 and 5.
b. Level of co-operation
The existing scientific network between the Dutch partners and IPB will be strengthened and
extended with Gadja Mada University in Yogjakarta. It is foreseen that four Indonesians will pursue
their MSc into a PhD tract during this project. Each of them will have at least one Dutch and one
Indonesian supervisor who will co-author the publications in the theses. The aim is to have groups
of scientists in Indonesia and The Netherlands that continue to work on the epidemiology and
economics of infectious diseases in the future. In this cooperation the Indonesian partners bring
their unique data and expertise, essential to understand the population dynamics of HPAIv; the
Dutch partners can bring in knowledge of mathematical modeling, molecular techniques and
economics methodologies.
d. Linkages with other national, regional and international research initiatives or research
groups Both Utrecht University and Central Veterinary Institute cooperate with RIVM (Dutch Public
Health Institut) on HPAIv. Long standing international collaborations have been achieved with IZSV
in Padova Italy and VLA-AH in the UK. In the field of Animal Health Economics there are many links
with other researchers in the field of Animal Health Economcis (e.g. at the Royal Veterinary College
in London, the Scottish Agricultural College, Arhus University as well as numerous contacts with
veterinary faculties all over the world. The Business Economics Group is a very international group
with PhD students from 16 different countries In addition, Utrecht University has also studied HPAI
in tropical areas, Thailand in particular (Drs. Songserm of Kasetsart University and Tiensin of
Department of Livestock Development). This JRP can benefit from that experience. In addition, the
Dutch government is planning activities in Vietnam to help HPAI control there and CVI and Utrecht
University will be involved.
side of the government at central level and at decentralized (provincial and district level) veterinary
services and universities (veterinary and animal husbandry faculties) and research institutes are
connected with poultry industry. Also several NGO representing producers (GAPPI, FMPI, GPMT,
GPPU, PINSAR, GOPAN), the veterinary association, and consumers organizations. Several of these
stakeholders will be involved in the projects. Collaboration with these stakeholders has been
established during earlier projects by Dutch and Indonesian project partners.
Stakeholders will participate both as a source of valuable information necessary to accomplish the
project and also as the persons that can bring the results of the project into policy/practice.
Indonesian Government, Netherlands Embassy, FAO, and CP (Poultry company) will participate in
the project as stakeholders. Initially they will help developing questionnaires and gathering
essential information on Indonesian poultry husbandry. This information will be collected by
personal interviews and workshops in Indonesia. See individual projects for details. During the time
of the JRP, the stakeholders will be invited for meetings when Dutch project leaders visit Indonesia
to discuss the progress of the JRP and ask suggestions for improvements. A mid-term workshop
involving most stakeholders will be planned to and the results of this workshop will be used to fne
tune the projects design and needed. At the end of the JRP the results will be disseminated by
workshops with stakeholders.

Research Proposal
3. Summary of the Project Proposal (Max. 400 words) Word count: 379
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 is endemic in Indonesian poultry and the
disease causes considerable economic losses to poultry keepers. Besides the economic damage,
however, the virus is important from the perspective of public health. Effective control of HPAIv
H5N1 in the poultry population is pivotal to reduce the risks posed to humans.
Control programs based on vaccination or stamping out are either not effective or not feasible in
the Indonesian situation. In order to develop more effective control programs it is crucial to
understand the transmission network, e.g. the quantitative contribution of the relevant
transmission routes of HPAIv within and between the sectors of the poultry husbandry. Once this
is known, one can examine the effect of interventions in simulation studies. As a first step to gain
such understanding in this project the contact structure of the Indonesian poultry husbandry is
quantified.
Local poultry experts will be interviewed to obtain a comprehensive list of contacts to and from
each of the farm types (broilers, layers, ducks and backyard) in a poultry production chain. Next,
literature will be reviewed regarding information on the potential of these contacts to transmit
infectious poultry diseases. These results will be used to develop a structured questionnaire and a
logbook to collect data on the rate of contacts between poultry farms in West-Java.
An area in West-Java/Banten will be designated and relevant contact information will be collected
from farms in this area by interview and log book. Poultry collector houses/live bird markets will
also be included in the study, although they may be outside the chosen area. In addition the contact
pattern of persons visiting farms (for example feed suppliers, veterinarians, etc) will also be
examined. Analysis of these data will reveal the rate of contacts that could potentially transfer
HPAIv 1) between farms within the same poultry production chain (broilers, layers, ducks,
backyard), 2) between farms in different poultry production chains and 3) to and within poultry
collector houses and live bird markets is estimated. Next the effect of various factors, such as
poultry type or poultry sector (biosecurity level I, II, III and IV) on the contact rate will be
estimated. Finally, a contact network will be created including both the contact and spatial
components of the Indonesian poultry population.

4. Detailed description of the Project (Max. 2000 words) Word count: 1186
a. Scientific Background
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 is endemic in Indonesian poultry and the
disease causes considerable economic losses to poultry keepers of both professional and back yard
farms (Anonymous, 2012a). Besides the economic damage, however, the virus is important from
the perspective of public health. Indonesia is the country that has reported the highest number of
fatal human cases of HPAIv H5N1 infections; also in the year 2012 new cases have been reported
(Anonymous, 2012b). Nevertheless, the biggest threat of the virus to public health is its capability
to re-assort with other Influenza viruses creating the potential for a pandemic in humans (Peiris et
al., 2007). Effective control of HPAIv H5N1 in the poultry population is pivotal to reduce the risks
posed to humans.
Several attempts have been initiated to control the spread of HPAIv H5N1 in Indonesian poultry,
but despite these efforts the poultry sector is still confronted with outbreaks. Although effective
vaccines are available (Poetri, et al., 2009; Bouma A, et al., 2009), vaccination has not resulted in
elimination of HPAIv from Indonesian poultry. Moreover, eradication of the virus by culling
infected flocks and flocks considered at risk for infection, which appeared successful in e.g.
Thailand (Tiensin, et al., 2005), has not been implemented in Indonesia. Such an approach is very
costly, because money to compensate farmers for their losses is essential for its success (Lubroth J,
2007). In addition, cooperation between veterinary authorities and poultry industry in the control
of HPAI is suboptimal in Indonesia.
Having seen in the past years that control programmes based on vaccination or stamping out
either are not effective or not feasible in the Indonesian situation the question can be raised
Page 41 of 117
_________________________________________________________________________________________
whether effective control programmes can be developed that better fit the Indonesian situation. In
order to develop such programs it is crucial to understand the transmission network, e.g. the
quantitative contribution of the relevant transmission routes of HPAIv within and between the
sectors of the poultry husbandry. Once this is known, one can test the effect of interventions in
simulation studies. Although several studies have been performed in the past years to identify risk
factors(Hogerwerf L, et al., ; 2010; Loth L, et al., 2011 ; Yupiana Y, et al., 2010), these studies do not
provide detailed knowledge for understanding the HPAIv transmission in the poultry chain. As a
first step to gain such understanding it is essential to have a clear insight in the contact structure
of the Indonesian poultry husbandry.
b. Specific Objective(s)
Gain insight in the contact structure of the Indonesian poultry husbandry, more specifically,
1) Estimate the rate of contacts that could potentially transfer HPAIv 1) between farms within the
same poultry production chain (broilers, layers, ducks, backyard), 2) between farms in different
poultry production chains and 3) to and within poultry collector houses and live bid markets.
2) Estimate the differences in contact rates between the various poultry sectors (I, II, III and IV).
3) Create a network describing the relevant contacts in the Indonesian poultry production chain.
c. Workplan
Objective 1. Estimate the rate of contacts that could potentially transfer HPAIv 1) between farms
within the same poultry production chain (broilers, layers, ducks, backyard), 2) between farms in
different poultry production chains and 3) to and within poultry collector houses and live bid
markets.
a. Literature review and elicitation of expert knowledge to identify the contact types that could
potentially transfer HPAIv.
According to poultry type, four production chains will be distinguished: broilers, layers, ducks and
backyard chicken. Local poultry experts will be interviewed to obtain a comprehensive list of
contacts to and from each of the farm types in a poultry production chain. Contacts may be
associated with the transport of live birds, persons, materials, feed, as well as other relevant
contacts. Next, literature will be reviewed regarding information on the potential of these contacts
to transmit infectious poultry diseases. Finally, these results will be used to develop a structured
questionnaire to collect data on the rate of contacts between poultry farms in West-Java. This
questionnaire will be validated in a pilot study.
under a; type of contact (for example live birds, feed trucks, technical personel, manure disposal,
etc), where do they come from (poultry farm yes/no, type of poultry, poultry sector). Next, farms
will be given a logbook to record the contacts. Poultry collector houses/live bird markets will also
be included in the study, although they may be outside the chosen area. From the interviews and
the logbooks the contact rate can be estimated.
2) Estimate the differences in contact rates between the various poultry sectors (I, II, III and IV).
From the interviews and the logbooks risk factors associated with the contact rate can be
estimated, such as biosecurity level and poultry type.
3) Create a network describing the relevant contacts in the Indonesian poultry production chain.
Using the data collected in the field a mathematical model will be constructed describing both the
contact and spatial network of the Indonesian poultry population (this part is together with
project 3).
d. Scientific Relevance
This project will give us detailed insight in the contact structure of the poultry industry. Such
information is now lacking and as a consequence it is now impossible to understand the
transmission of HPAI H5N1 in Indonesian poultry at a level that is sufficient to propose promising
intervention programmes. A model combining both the contact network and the spatial network
describing the transmission of HPAIv is new and very helpful in studying/generating hypotheses
regarding HPAIv H5N1 transmission in Indonesia.

All projects within this JRP are interconnected. This project describes the contact structure of the
Indonesian poultry husbandry. The results will be used to create a mathematical model (project 3)
that can describe the transmission of HPAIv in the Indonesian poultry husbandry. For that
purpose parameters derived from project 2 will be integrated with the data of the contact
structure. Projects 4 and 5 will use this model to estimate the effect of changes in the value chain
and changes in the structure of the poultry husbandry on the transmission of HPAIv.

Research Proposal
3. Summary of the Project Proposal (Max. 400 words) Word count: 421
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 was first detected in 2003 and since that
year became endemic in Indonesian poultry. The disease causes considerable economic losses to
the poultry industry in particular to the small holders. Besides the economic impact, the virus also
caused 183 human cases of infection of which 156 had a fatal course (WHO March 1, 2012).
Effective control of HPAIv H5N1 in the poultry population is pivotal to reduce the risks posed to
humans.
Control programs based on vaccination or stamping out are either not effective or not feasible in
the Indonesian situation. In order to develop more effective control programs it is crucial to
understand the transmission network, e.g. the quantitative contribution of the relevant
transmission routes of HPAIv within and between the sectors of the poultry husbandry. Once this
is known, one can examine the effect of interventions in simulation studies. As a first step to gain
such understanding in this project the contact structure of the Indonesian poultry husbandry is
quantified. In project 1 the transmission network will be constructed based on epidemiological
data. In project 2 the transmission network will be based on H5N1 sequence data. In project 3 a
model will be designed to combine the epidemiological and sequence data to obtain a better
resolution of the transmission network.
In project 1 of the SPIN an area in West-Java/Banten programme will be chosen in which
epidemiological data related to contacts between the different components of the poultry chain.
In the project at hand, we will start a syndromic surveillance programme in the same area. In the
programme farmers are requested to submit samples in case clinical signs such increased
mortality, drop in (egg) production or reduced water and food consumption is observed. The

samples will be tested for AI in a RT-PCR. To increase willingness to participate the resulting PCR
data will be stored anonymously in a database although geographical location of the farm
concerned has to be stored for later analysis. In case of a positive PCR the neighbouring and
contact farms will be visited to evaluate the production numbers in those farms and collect
samples if findings indicate possible AI infection. Poultry collector houses/live bird markets will
also be included in the surveillance, although they may be outside the chosen area. Positive
samples will be processed for whole influenza genome sequencing. The sequence data will be used
in phylogenetics to produce a genetic transmission network.

a. Scientific Background
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 is endemic in Indonesian poultry and the
disease causes considerable economic losses to poultry keepers of both professional and back yard
farms. Besides the economic damage the virus affects public health. Indonesia is the country that
has reported the highest number of fatal human cases of HPAIv H5N1 infections; also in the year
2012 cases have been reported. Nevertheless, the biggest threat is that the virus acquires the
capability to transmit from human to human. The virus could acquire this capability by genetic
drift in poultry or humans or by reassortment with other human influenza viruses (Bataille et al
2010, Jonges, et al 2011). Recent not yet published studies (Science and Nature) revealed that only
a few mutation in diferent gene segments are sufficient to enable the virus to transmit from
mammal to mammal .
Several attempts have been initiated to control the spread of HPAIv in the Indonesian poultry
population, but despite these efforts the poultry sector is still confronted with outbreaks. Although
effective vaccines are available vaccination has not resulted in elimination of HPAIv from
Indonesia. Moreover, eradication of the virus by culling infected flocks and flocks considered at
risk for infection, which appeared successful in e.g. Thailand, has not been implemented in
Indonesia. Such an approach is very costly, because money to compensate farmers for their losses
is essential for its success. In addition, cooperation between veterinary authorities and poultry
industry in the control HPAI is suboptimal.
Poultry production in Indonesia is mainly oriented at the own consumption. Poultry farms in
Indonesia are distinguished in 4 sectors, according to their level of biosecurity. Level 1 has a very
high level of biosecurity, whereas level 4 is back yard farming with very limited biosecurity. Poultry
is the most important source of animal protein in Indonesia and Indonesian agricultural policy
endorses the maintenance of small poultry holdings. Consequently, many people are dependent on
poultry for their income or food, which has been compromised by HPAIv H5N1.
Sequencing of viruses obtained during an epidemic can help to answer a number of question like
genetic origin of the outbreak virus, evolution rates, selection pressure, reassorment history,
geographical spread of viruses, reproduction number (R0) etc (reviewed in Lam et al, 2007).
We applied these methods to analyse the Dutch outbreak of HPAI H7N7 in 2003. We sequenced
only the HA, NA and PB2 genes of numerous HPAI H7N7 viruses isolated during this outbreak and
observed a high level of genetic diversity driven mainly by a high neutral substitution rate,
purifying selection and limited positive selection. We also constructed a transmission network
using phylogenetics (Bataille et 2011). From the network we were able to identify some likely
transmission events between farms located 0.813 Km apart and one possible event at a distance
Page 55 of 117
_________________________________________________________________________________________
of 65.8 km.
Ypma et al (2011) constructed a likelihood-based framework combining the transmission
network and epidemiological data and estimated probabilities of infection by taking weighted
averages over the set of possible transmission trees. The transmission tree obtained in such a way
was of higher resolution than analyses based on genetic or epidemiological data alone. Combining
this improved transmission tree with wind data a conservative estimate was made that wind-
mediated mechanism of transmission may have contributed around 18% of the total amount of
spread of HPAI (Ypma et all submitted, 2012).
Incorporation of sequences of human H7N7 isolates showed that most viruses were located at the
tips of the network. That the majority of human cases were dead-end infections suggests that
infection of humans did not contribute to virus spread per se (Jonges et al 2011). These analyses
demonstrate the power of the use of sequence information for epidemiological questions.
Recently more sequences of Indonesian poultry and human isolates have become available.
However, these relate to HA and to or lesser extent NA genes. Whole genome sequencing is scarce.
Furthermore no attempt was made to relate human to poultry sequences in depth.
To improve the HPAI situation control measures that fit the Indonesian situation have to be
developed and implemented. For that purpose it is essential to understand the (importance of)
various transmission routes of HPAIv within and between the sectors of the poultry husbandry.
Although several studies on risk factors for HPAI in Indonesia have been published, their results do
yet not enable construction of a model describing the transmission of HPAIv in Indonesian
poultry. Such a model is essential to study the effect of incentives and adaptation of control
measures on the transmission of HPAIv. In project 1 a model is constructed describing the contacts
within Indonesian poultry husbandry.
However, in order to get realistic out put from the model it is important to include valid
transmission parameters. In this project we will use molecular epidemiological tools to unravel the
transmission of HPAIv in Indonesian poultry.
b. Specific Objective(s)
1) Create a collection of isolates of HPAIv coming from different components of the Indonesian
poultry industry.
2) Perform a full genome sequencing of all isolates
3) Perform genetic analysis of the isolates
a. To create phylogenetic trees
b. Study phylogeography and -dynamics
c. Study virus evolution in poultry looking for antigenic evolution; emergence of
human virulence factors, antiviral resistance factors
d. Transmission networks.
4) Combining genetic and epidemiological data to unravel the transmission dynamics of HPAIv
between various poultry sectors using the model developed in project 3.
c. Workplan
HPAIv samples collected in the framework of the Indonesian Dutch partnership will be available
for the project. The sample bank includes samples collected at poultry collector houses from
incoming poultry. The databank of the samples comprises epidemiological data such as origin of
the poultry type, geographical location of the farm of origin and date of collection. The samples
are available for full genome sequencing. Sequences will be compared by up-to-date phylogenetic
analytic techniques to assess genetic variation. Next analyses will be performed to determine
whether genotypes cluster according geographically and or according to poultry type.
2. An area of West-Java will be designated (same area as in project 1). Poultry farms in the area will
be visited and classified according to their poultry type (broiler, layer, duck, back yard) and sector
(I, II, III, IV). The location of the farm will be pointed in a Geographical Information System and
herd characteristics such as type of poultry, number of birds, biosecurity level, etc. will be
recorded. Farmers will be asked to notify IPB (the PhD student) in case the birds show signs of
systemic or respiratory disease or increased mortality. Upon notification samples will be collected
from 10 birds in the acute phase of disease (those showing typical signs) and recently deceased
birds will be submitted for necropsy. Samples will be pooled and tested for the presence of AIv by
RT-PCR. Clinical samples positive for AIv will be stored at -80 0C. Farms within a 3 km radius of the
infected farm and farms with known dangerous contacts will be visited asking for the presence of
disease. In case disease is reported, samples will be collected in a similar way as described above.
Samples will be collected for a period of one to one and a half year depending on the number of
positive farms.
3. Whole genomes of isolates will be sequenced and the genetic diversity will be analysed to create
phylogenetic trees of the viruses (as in Bataille et al., 2011). Next, genetic data will be combined
with epidemiologic data to refine the tree of transmission events (as in Ypma et al., 2012).
d. Scientific Relevance
Recently it has been demonstrated using reverse genetics that only a few mutations are needed for
the H5N1 virus to acquire the property to transmit from human to human. All mutation needed for
this property are reported to be present in known isolates but have not yet been detected in the
right combination. Elucidating mechanisms that drive H5N1 genetic variation in poultry is of great
importance for risk assessment of a possible emergence of the pandemic H5N1.
Up to now H5N1 sequences has not been used for epidemiological studies probably because
isolates have been collected stochastically without the solid epidemiological data. Therefore
sequences could not be used to support epidemiological investigations. Collection of both
sequence and the underlying epidemiological data will allow us to combine both data. Combined
data will result in a transmission network of a better resolution. A better transmission network
provides better insight in transmission routes and their relative contribution to the epidemic.
Quantitated knowledge of transmission routes are crucial to develop targeted control, improved
intervention programmes. trolling or eradicating the H5N1 epidemic in Indonesia.

All projects within this JRP are interconnected. Project 1 describes the contact structure of the
Indonesian poultry husbandry. The results will be used to create a mathematical model (project 3)
that can describe the transmission of HPAIv in the Indonesian poultry husbandry. For that
purpose parameters derived from this project 2 will be integrated with the data of the contact
structure. Projects 4 and 5 will use this model to estimate the effect of changes in the value chain
and changes in the structure of the poultry husbandry on the transmission of HPAIv.

Research Proposal
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 is endemic in Indonesian poultry and the
disease causes considerable economic losses to poultry keepers of both professional and back yard
farms. Besides the economic damage, however, the virus is important from the perspective of
public health. Effective control of HPAIv H5N1 in the poultry population is pivotal to reduce the
risks posed to humans.
In this project we will develop an epidemiological model describing the transmission of HPAIv in
the Indonesian poultry husbandry. For that purpose the contact network from project 1 and the
transmission parameters collected in project 2 will be combined. The resulting model can be used
to investigate the effect of changes in contact structure on the transmission of HPAIv.
First, an epidemiological model will be developed that includes the contacts within a poultry
production chain and the interactions that exist with other poultry chains. The poultry production
chains of interest here are those of broilers, layers, ducks and backyard chickens. Besides contacts
within and between these chains, the spatial network of these farms will be included in the model.
Next, the contact rate as established in project 1 will be incorporated into the model as well as the
transmission parameters generated in project 2.
Once the model has been parameterized, it will be (partly) validated using available datasets. Next,
different scenarios will be tested in order to examine the effect of differences in contact rate at the
transmission of HPAIv in Indonesian poultry. In addition the transmission parameters in the
model can also be varied in order to estimate the effect of intervention measures like vaccination
or cleaning and disinfection.
The model will provide insight in the highly complex transmission dynamics within the
Indonesian poultry industry.
a. Scientific Background
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus (HPAIv) H5N1 is endemic in Indonesian poultry and the
disease causes considerable economic losses to poultry keepers of both professional and back yard
flocks (Anonymous, 2012a). Besides the economic damage, however, the virus is important from
the perspective of public health. Indonesia is the country that has reported the highest number of
fatal human cases of HPAIv H5N1 infections; also in the year 2012 new cases have been reported
(Anonymous, 2012b). Nevertheless, the biggest threat of the virus to public health is its capability
to re-assort with other Influenza viruses creating the potential for a virus able to cause a pandemic

in humans (Peiris et al, 2007). Effective control of HPAIv H5N1 in the poultry population is pivotal
to reduce the risks posed to humans.
Several attempts have been initiated to control the spread of HPAIv H5N1 in Indonesian poultry,
but despite these efforts the poultry sector is still confronted with outbreaks. Although effective
vaccines are available, vaccination has not resulted in elimination of HPAIv from Indonesian
poultry. Moreover, eradication of the virus by culling infected flocks and flocks considered at risk
for infection, which appeared successful in e.g. Thailand, has not been implemented in Indonesia.
Such an approach is very costly, because compensating farmers for their losses is essential for its
success (Lubroth, 2007). In addition, cooperation between veterinary authorities and poultry
industry in the control of HPAI is suboptimal in Indonesia, which obscures a comprehensive
picture of the HPAIv situation in Indonesia.
Having seen that control programs based on vaccination or stamping out are either not effective or
not feasible in the Indonesian situation the question can be raised whether effective control
programs can be developed that fit the Indonesian situation. In order to answer that question it is
crucial to understand the transmission network, e.g. the quantitative contribution of the relevant
transmission routes of HPAIv within and between the sectors of the poultry husbandry. By
mapping and quantifying epidemiological links between the different types of farms, it should be
possible to identify those routes that are most crucial for transmission of the virus. If these are
known, the effect of interventions affecting these routes can be calculated or tested in simulation
studies. Although several studies have been performed in the past years to identify risk factors
(Yupiana et al, 2010; Loth et al, 2011), these studies do not provide detailed quantitative
knowledge for understanding the HPAIv transmission between the different actors in the poultry
chain.
The data collected in projects 1 and 2 will be used to build the transmission model of HPAIv in the
Indonesian poultry husbandry. The data in project 1 should provide the most complete picture of
all actors in the network (e.g. farm types), and the estimated contact rates can be used for
quantification of the proportional contributions of all links between the actors. The data in project
2 can probably identify only part of the relevant links, but for these links actual transmission rates
can be identified rather than contact rates, giving a better quantification of the underlying risk of
these links. By combining the two projects it will be possible (1) to test whether the
proportionality in contact rates can indeed be translated to proportionality in transmission rates,
and (2) to estimate the proportionality constant and thus quantify the complete transmission
network. The resulting network transmission model can be used to investigate the effect of
changes in contact structure on the transmission of HPAIv, and to identify those contacts
contributing most to transmission.
b. Specific Objective(s)
2. Identify contacts with greatest contribution to HPAIv transmission and examine the effect of
changes in the contact structure on the transmission of HPAIv in Indonesian poultry
c. Workplan

_________________________________________________________________________________________
This project will run in the third and fourth year of the JRP. In the project the contact structure of
the Indonesian poultry husbandry will be condensed into an epidemiological model describing the
transmission of HPAIv in Indonesian poultry. Using the data collected in project 1, the model will
include the contacts within and between each of the poultry production chains (broilers, layers,
ducks and backyard chickens), including contacts with live bird markets and poultry collector
houses to mimic Indonesian poultry production. If relevant, spatial data will be included. The rate
of contacts as observed in project1 will be used to do a first quantification of the model. Using the
data of project 2, the contact rates should be translated to actual transmission rates. This will be
done by estimating the transmission rates for some specific contacts identified in project 2, and
calculating the proportionality constant in relation to the contact rates of project 1. This
proportionality constant is subsequently used to estimate the transmission rates for all contacts in
the network. Literature data and data from previous studies (Bouma et al, 2008) will be used for
validation.
Next, the mathematical description of the transmission network will be analysed to estimate the
herd-reproduction ratio Rh (number of flocks infected by one infectious flock) and to identify those
contacts to which Rh is most sensitive. Those contacts should ideally be targeted for optimally
effective control. Additionally, simulations will be done to verify the effectiveness of targeting
these contacts, and to estimate how long it will take for control to be effective. This should result in
a list a control options such as disinfection, vaccination, or cleaning, that can be used for economic
optimization in projects 4 and 5.
Besides working on his or her own modelling project, we envisage that the postdoc will spend
time in Indonesia to get good inside knowledge on the data collection in projects 1 and 2, and to
be able to advice on which data are exactly collected. This will prevent the model from becoming a
theoretical exercise with little relation to reality and it will maximize applicability of the collected
data for the models.
d. Scientific Relevance
The model will provide a quantitative description of transmission contacts in the Indonesian
poultry industry, and a first estimate of the reproduction ratio between herds R h. The model will
give insight into the highly complex transmission dynamics, that cannot be obtained otherwise.

Research Proposal
a. Scientific Background
Animal disease pose significant threats to livestock sectors throughout the world, both from the
standpoint of the economic impacts of the disease itself and the measures taken to mitigate the
risk of disease introduction (Rich and Perry, 2010). A good understanding of these impacts is
necessary for effective policy response. When describing economic effects of chicken diseases, in
many cases only attention is given to the notifiable disease avian influenza (AI). Especially since
the occurrence of highly pathogenic AI (HPAI), this disease has gained much interest. Especially
because of the risk that the capability of this virus to re-assort with other Influenza viruses, which
might lead to a pandemic in humans (Peiris et al, 2007). In order to decrease the risk of infections
by humans, farmers in the poultry chain have to take preventive measures to reduce the levels of
infection. Programs to reduce the level of infection of HPAI are not always successful (Anonymous,
2010). Lack of (proven) economic efficiency of preventive measures explains part of the lack of
success of preventive measures (Anonymous, 2010). Another part might be explained by the fact
that farmers, especially smaller family farms, might be driven by other motivators than only
economics (e.g., Lam et al, 2010) and that uptake of new insights is more than explaining these
insights to farmers (Garforth and Usher, 1997).
Page 87 of 117
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Besides HPAI, there are more viral poultry diseases, being endemic in Indonesia, such as New
Castle Disease (NCD) and infectious bursal disease (Gumboro). Although the economic effect of
these diseases is substantial, no efforts have been undertaken to reduce the levels of these
infectious diseases in the Indonesian poultry chain. A search of Web of Science did only deliver
publications on prevention of HPAI. No papers were published on prevention of other viral
diseases in Indonesia. However, a combined approach towards these diseases is expected to
generate an improved value of the poultry chain as well as a reduction in infection level, also for
HPAI.
An important gap in the research approach towards improved health and safety in Indonesia is the
explicit incorporation of economics and farmer behaviour. By studying the economics of combined
prevention of viral poultry diseases in Western Java as well as the motivators for uptake of
preventive measures for the different actors in the Java poultry value chain, policy making towards
an improved and safer Java poultry chain can be supported.
b. Specific Objective(s)
The overall objective of this project is to strengthen the chicken value chain in Java by economic
optimization of chicken health for different types of farmers.
c. Workplan
The basis for our work will be the development of a quantitative value chain simulation model
(subproject 4.1). In this model, relationships, characteristics and dynamics that take place among
actors in the Indonesian poultry chain will be systematically summarized (Kaplinsky and Morris,
2001). More qualitative value chains of (parts) of the Indonesian poultry sector have been created
in the past (e.g., Sudarman et al, 2008; McLeod et al., Siagian et al., 2008). Based on these and other
scientific papers and reports, a quantitative poultry value chain simulation model will be
developed for Western Java. Input for this value chain will be based on (scientific) literature,
available reports and databases and interviews with key persons in the Java poultry chain. The
quantitative value chain will be developed as a simulation model as is done recently for the Dutch
poultry chain in relation to the use of antibiotics (Muljono et al., 2012). This simulation model
enables the calculation of the effects of changes of, for instance, production efficiency because of a
reduced disease burden.
Page 88 of 117
_________________________________________________________________________________________
In subproject 4.2, for the different farm types (actors) that can be distinguished in the value chain
(integrated farm companies, breeding farms, small commercial farms and backyard chicken
farms), stochastic Monte Carlo simulation models will be developed with specific emphasis on
estimating the economic effects of occurrence of viral diseases (HPAI, Gumboro and NCD). Using
these models, the expected costs of these diseases can be estimated. Input for the models will be
based on the developed value chain, scientific literature on the pathogenesis of the diseases under
study, local reports on occurrence of these diseases (if available) and interviews with veterinary
experts on these diseases (expertise). The developed stochastic simulation models will be used to
estimate the expected (economic) effect of implementation of preventive measures. Special
emphasis will be given to the combined effect of preventive measures for different poultry
diseases. The preventive measures that will be studied, will be selected in close collaboration with
veterinary field officers, so that the studied measures are measures that are expected to be
effective.
As a next step the intentions and motivations of stakeholders to implement preventive measures
will be studied (subproject 4.3). A questionnaire, based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour
(Azjen, 1991) will be constructed. The questionnaire will be tested on and discussed with a
limited number of the study population to test it. After adjustment, the questionnaire will be
carried out for 100 stakeholders, divided over the four different groups of stakeholders
(companies, breeder farms, commercial farms, backyard farms) and other important actors such
as traders. Besides the basic questions with regard to the farm and socio-demographic
information, questions will be aimed to generate knowledge on the behaviour of the farmer with
regard to viral poultry diseases, the intention to change behaviour, the attitude towards the
behaviour, the subjective norms with regard to the behaviour and the perceived behavioural
control. Questionnaires will be held by means of individual semi-structured interviews. Data will
be statistically analysed (correlation analysis) to quantify the importance of factors with regard to
the motivation of farmers to change their behaviour and their attitude towards the disease and
behaviour to improve the disease status (e.g., Ellis-Iversen et al., 2010).
Finally, in subproject 4.4, for the most important groups of farmers and traders (actors) identified
in the poultry value chain, agent-based models will be created, where a farmer is an agent acting in
interaction with other actors in the system. By applying agent-based modelling, the actions and
interactions of farmers, given certain disease prevention policies, can be modelled and the effects
of the individual behaviour on the total farm system can be estimated. This type of multi-agent
models have been applied to model the spread of disease (e.g., Kim et al, 2010), but hardly to
model the behaviour of farmers (e.g., Valeeva and Verwaart, 2011). The parameters to be used in
the agent-based models will be derived from the economic analysis as well as the questionnaires
on motivation and behaviour of poultry farmers with regard to prevention of viral poultry diseases
and the information on contact structure and spread of HPAI as is studied in project 1 and 2.
d. Scientific Relevance
Until now, economic work with regard to prevention of HPAI has hardly been carried out beyond
the value chain analysis. This work carries out cost-benefit analyses of preventive measures
against HPAI on Indonesian poultry farms and places this in perspective of other viral poultry
diseases (thus improving the efficiency of preventive measures). Moreover, this work looks at the
motivation and attitudes of different groups of poultry farmers with regard to prevention of viral

The first subproject of this project (subproject 4.1; development of a quantitative value chain
simulation model) will be used in projects 1, 2 and 5. For projects 1 and 2, this simulation model
(and the value chain analysis underneath it) will be the basis for determining the contact structure
and the spread of disease over the poultry chain in Western Java. In project 5, this model will be
used to estimate the added value of the poultry chain in Western Java. Moreover, in subproject 5.2,
this simulation model will be resemble the basic structure of the poultry production chain in

Western Java.
Subprojects 4.2 and 4.3 will use information from projects 1, 2 and 3. Subproject 4.4 will use
results from project 5 (subproject 5.3) to see the effect of different structures on risk of AI.
Besides that, in subproject 4.4, knowledge gained in projects 1 and 3 about the existing contact
structure as well as the spread of HPAI throughout the poultry production chain in Indonesia will
be utilized.

Research Proposal
3. Summary of the Project Proposal (Max. 400 words) Word count: 106
As a consequence of its vulnerability to avian influenza (AI) the poultry sector in Indonesia should
be re-organised so as to optimise the disease prevention efficiency of the chain under the
condition of food security for the population. Since the external effects that are caused by the
current method of poultry production and marketing, are complex, government intervention is
needed. The project addresses the question which organisational forms of the Indonesian poultry
supply chain and government intervention provide the most efficient way of coordination under
the conditions of food safety and security. Principal-agent theory and cost-benefit analysis are
used for supply chain optimisation under different scenarios.
4. Detailed description of the Project (Max. 2000 words) Word count: 1969
a. Scientific Background
The poultry sector in Indonesia is of great economic importance, yet, the problems faced by the
sector are probably even greater of magnitude. On the one hand, poultry products (meat, eggs) are
a very popular and widely consumed food product by a large part of Indonesias Islamic
population. It is expected that the consumption of poultry will increase in the coming years due to
economic development and a higher level of welfare. This leads to a need for more production.
Poultry production provides also a living to many farmers, traders and company employees. An
important disease for the poultry production chain in Indonesia is avian influenza (AI). Because of
the risk of human disease the highly pathogenic variant of AI (HPAI) is even more important and a
reason that much research and control efforts are focussed on that poultry disease. In this
research program epidemiological research will provide decision makers with options to reduce
the spread of disease (projects 1, 2 and 3). Economic modelling will enable decision makers to see
the economic consequences of improved management (including biosecurity; project 4). When
decisions have to be taken by stakeholders, the results of those projects will be very useful.
However, these projects leave the structure of the poultry production in Indonesia intact, while
this structure of breeding, production, transportation, storage and marketing by the many small
and large actors in the poultry supply chain is, however, rather vulnerable to severe shortcomings
on food safety and animal health (Charnoz, O and P. Foster, 2011). In a recent poultry value chain
study and AI risk assessment in the Jakarta surrounding area Sudarman et al. (2008) therefore
recommend that () the Government of Indonesia should begin establishing, regulating and
negotiating with relevant stakeholders standard biosecurity regulations for all actors involved in
the poultry industry. As such, governmental intervention with regard to reduction of AI moves
beyond on-farm measures to provide incentives to change the current organisation of the poultry
production and marketing chain into a structure that guarantees a healthy and animal friendly
Page 102 of 117

production, control over diseases, improved food safety and a sufficiently increasing supply to
meet the ever larger demand through the growing number of wealthier consumers (FAO/WHO,
2012).
From an economic policy point of view, the hazards of animal diseases and unsafe food can be
considered as negative external effects of the method of poultry production and marketing.
Moreover, the number of stakeholders who suffer from and/or cause these external effects is
rather large, so that negotiations between those who are affected by, and hence, wish to reduce the
external effects, and those who cause the external effects, will be complex and vulnerable to free-
riders who benefit from but do not pay for the additional transactions needed to internalise the
external effects (Teulings et al., 2003). This implies, in accordance to the recommendations in
Sudarman et al. (2008), that the government should facilitate the processes to improve the
structure of poultry production in Indonesia.
However, before the government can stimulate a certain restructuring of the Indonesian poultry
sector, knowledge should be gained about its optimal structure. An optimal structure should fulfil
a number of conditions as to not only optimise the disease prevention efficiency of the chain.
These conditions are:
1. Providing food security. Prices should not rise but preferably decrease such that the food
security of the Indonesian people is not negatively affected.
2. Providing means of living for at least the same number of producers, traders and workers
as are currently working in the poultry production chain.
3. Production should remain in rural areas.
4. Improving the biosecurity of poultry production with regard to AI.
5. Improving the economic efficiency of production.
From a technical point of view, optimal supply chains can be formulated that maximize
performance under the restrictions of food safety and security, see, for example, Dabbene et al.
(2008), Almeder et al. (2009), Vo and Thiel (2011). Nevertheless, these models do not address the
question to what extent the market (price) mechanism must be replaced by organisational
coordination mechanisms (e.g. Mintzberg, 1979, 1989) in order to obtain optimal outcomes given
the constraints imposed. Enforcing transactions to satisfy these constraints is more difficult than
voluntary transactions in the market. Consequently, when collective insurance leads to inefficient
implementation, the government is more likely to opt for competition. One way out of this
dilemma is to introduce hybrid forms of coordination (Menard, 1996, 2004; Graversen et al., 2004)
by, for example, decentralised insurance groups (e.g. on a regional basis), so that compulsory
collective insurance can be combined with e.g. yardstick competition (competition based on
(price) comparisons between groups). In contrast, economies of scale can be achieved when fixed
costs must be paid, regardless of the scale of production. The average costs are then lower for
large-scale production. These economies of scale imply that only a limited number of suppliers can
be active in the market. This gives these suppliers a degree of market power, which means that
they can influence pricing or volumes. Access barriers can give existing suppliers even more
market power. Suppliers can abuse these dominant positions to fix prices at too high a level from a
social point of view (Teulings et al, 2003). In both cases, the government can take measures to
provide for more effective production. If producers cannot cover their fixed costs, the government
can intervene by forcing consumers to contribute to these fixed costs and/or by limiting
competition, so that the fixed costs can be recovered (e.g. via patent law). If producers hold market
power, the government can address this power through price regulation, for example, or by
lowering access barriers (Teulings et al, 2003).
Consequently, in developing alternative structures optimally combining price and organisational
coordination mechanisms and incentives, research has to be done on how the government can
intervene so that the poultry sector will move towards a more effective, efficient and safe
production structure. Basically a government has three ways to intervene (Teulings et al., 2003):
Which method of intervention is optimal depends on the type of intervention and on the features
of the concrete case under consideration. Questions have to be answered whether permanent
intervention powers are needed and which price-quality ratio can be obtained by which form of
intervention. Cost-benefits analyses (e.g. Campbell and Brown, 2003) will be employed to
determine to which extent the advantages of internationalizing the complex external effects or
and/or a more politically acceptable distribution of income are offset against the costs of
government intervention.
b. Specific Objective(s)
The overall objective of this project is to describe an improved structure of the Indonesian poultry
production chain and the methods describing how the government can intervene in such a way
that this improved structure will be reached while the public interests involved are safeguarded.
Specific subobjectives are:
1. Inventarisation of the public interests involved with the poultry sector in Indonesia.
2. Determination of the current and alternative structures of the Indonesian poultry
production chain.
3. Development of an organisational model to determine the optimal structure of the
Indonesian production chain under varying technical and economic circumstances.
4. Inventarisation of the government instruments to facilitate and direct stimulate a desired
change in the structure of the poultry sector.
c. Workplan
Subproject 5.1. Based on economic theory and an existing conceptual framework (i.e., the public
interest calculus framework; Teulings et al., 2003), the public interests in Indonesia with regard to
the poultry production chain will be inventoried. Based on economic theory, the framework first
addresses the definition of a public interest (the what is a public interest and what are the public
interests involved with the poultry supply chain in Indonesia? questions). Next, the framework
also considers the how to? question: if there is a public interest, which role should the
government play in protecting it? A social interest only becomes a public interest if the market is
unable to protect the social interest. Specifically, the government has three reasons to intervene: In
case of unequally distributed positive effects of a change, in case of complex external effects
(including free-riders) and in case that the distribution of income leads to a loss of livelihood (e.g.,
because of large benefits for big companies and no benefits for small farmers). By means of a
participatory workshop in co-operation with FAO, including officials from various governmental
levels and stakeholders from the poultry production chain, the conditions for an improved poultry
production chain will be determined.
Subproject 5.2. Based on the quantitative value chain simulation model developed in subproject
4,1, the economic efficiency of production (added value) as well as the risks for spread of AI
(based on results from projects 1 and 3) of the current structure of the poultry production chain in
Western Java will be determined. With participation of stakeholders, several elements for
alternative structures (e.g., fixed farmer-trader relations, limited number of farmers per trader,
larger farm size, changed payment systems, etc.) will be defined. For all these different elements,
the effect on economic efficiency (using partial equilibrium models) spread of AI, food security
and other conditions that were found to be important during subproject 5.1 will be estimated.
Subproject 5.3. Using the estimations calculated in subproject 5.2, several hybrid forms of supply
chain organisation will be developed. Minimal conditions that need to be met according to the
information derived during subproject 5.1 (e.g., for number of jobs, price of meat or availability of
poultry given a growing population and an increasing purchasing power) will be modelled as
constraints. Using these constraint models and principal-agent theory (e.g., Schneeweiss, 2003),
first- and second-best solutions for the poultry sector in Western Java can be derived, based on
different costs of input factors (feed, barns, veterinary services) and scenarios (e.g. different
growth scenarios of the population) under maximisation of the added value and minimisation of
the risk of AI outbreaks. The difference in risk of AI outbreaks and added value of the optimal
structure will be compared with the added value and risk of AI outbreaks under the current
structure to estimate the value of the improved structure of the poultry production chain.
Subproject 5.4. When an improved (optimal) new structure of the poultry production chain in
Western Java has been developed (subproject 5.3), an analysis will be made whether this new
structure can be implemented in Western Java without governmental intervention. In order to do
so, again a participatory workshop will be organised. During this workshop, knowledge will be
elicited whether stakeholders will benefit from a change in structure. As a consequence of external
effects (free-riders) as well as stakeholders who might not benefit from a change in structure of
the poultry production chain, it is expected that governmental intervention is necessary. Such an
intervention poses new dilemmas. The four dilemmas on the basis of which public intervention
can be designed are (Teulings et al., 2003):
1. commitment versus flexibility;
2. specificity versus competition;
3. co-ordination versus segregation;
4. output versus input steering.
If the government wants to remain flexible in its steering, it will enter into principal/agent
relationships. In case of a specific relationship instead of competition, the activities to be co-
ordinated and those that can be segregated must be determined. The government must also
choose between output and input steering. The answers to questions with regard to these
dilemmas will assist in selecting the intervention instruments to be used: 1. regulation and
legislation; 2. outsourcing of public tasks; 3. public organisation. The choice of one of these forms
of intervention depends on the costs and benefits, which will be estimated, presented to and
discussed with the government and other stakeholders.
d. Scientific Relevance
Application and further development of a framework (criteria) to identify public interests and to
select the government instruments to protect the public interests while restructuring the poultry
production chain in Indonesia is new. Moreover, an optimisation model to define a first-best
structure has not only relevance to the Indonesian situation, but will also be of general scientific
interest because these types of studies are scarce.

The first subproject of project 4 (subproject 4.1), development of a quantitative value chain
simulation model, will be used in subproject 5.2. In this subproject the quantitative value chain
simulation model will be used to estimate the added value of the poultry chain in Western Java for
the sector analysis. Hence, this simulation model will resemble the basic structure of the poultry
production chain in Western Java and also forms the basis of the specification of the partial
equilibrium models for the empirical econometric analysis in subproject 5.2 and the integration of
these partial models into an overall econometric supply chain model for simulation and
optimisation purposes in subproject 5.3. The results from subproject 5.3 will be used in project 4
(subproject 4.4) to run the agent-based model with different structures. During the JRP we will
organise a joint workshop in Indonesia, which will be closely related to the participatory
workshops in subprojects 5.1 and 5.4. Finally, during the whole project we will use knowledge
from projects 1 and 3 about the existing contact structure as well as the spread of HPAI throughout
the poultry production chain in Indonesia.
Dr Henk Hogeveen is a senior researcher and has since his MSc work been working in a
multidisciplinary research environment. His field of work is Animal Health Management where he
is used to build bridges between the veterinary sciences and the social sciences (mainly business
economics). His research and teaching appointment as associated professor is even at two
Universities: Wageningen University (chair group Business Economics ) and the Faculty of
Veterinary Medicine of Utrecht University (department of Farm Animal Health). In order to be
successful in such a multidisciplinary field one must have the competence to work in teams and to
understand researchers from different disciplines, something that Henk Hogeveen has shown to
be capable of. Besides of his capabilities to build bridges between researchers and research fields,
he has been managing several large research proposals, among which EU integrated projects as
well as Dutch Science Foundation funded projects.
Dr Denny Lukman is a lecturer in the field of veterinary public health. He has been long engaged
with the management of several projects in Indonesia mainly in veterinary public health and
zoonoses, the education the community on hygiene and biosecurity and the establishment of food
safety management. He has been collaborating before with Dutch researchers in several field
projects on HPAI control in Subang Subdistrict (West Java) supported by an Indonesia-Dutch
partnership. In the government, he is a member of expert committee on Animal Health and
Veterinary Public Health in the Ministry of Agriculture.
The total project will take 5 years. The activities of this research are divided over the resarch time
as follows:
6. Year 1: Learning methods in the field of economics (MSc courses in micro-, macro- and
mathematical economics, institutional economics, econometrics, statistics, operations
research and supply chain management) as well as preparation of the research.
7. Year 2: Organising a workshop in co-operation with FAO, including officials from various
governmental levels and stakeholders from the poultry production chain, to determine the
conditions for an improved poultry production chain. External effects are inventoried,
their complexity assessed (public interest?) and social constraints are formulated
(subproject 5.1).
8. Year 3: Assessing the current structure of the Indonesian poultry production chain using
value chain simulation model developed in project 4 and literature review on alternative
forms of co-ordination in supply chains discussed and analysed in terms of economic
efficiency and effectiveness (subproject 5.2). This year will be spent in Indonesia.
