I had to cull my entire flock of BYC. See the link:

Now I am going to have to disinfect the environment.

I have a couple brooders made from Wal-Mart plastic tubs.
A bunch of tin waterers and feeders.
A wooden chicken coop 8'x8'x4'tall.
I kept the birds and the coop in a 1/2 acre that is surrounded by a chain link fence on three sides and my house on the fourth side.

How do I disinfect everything to ensure there is no more disease?

How do I specifically deal with the fenced in 1/2 acre?
 
Oxine (AH- Animal Health) would be your best bet to disinfect your coop, waterers and feeders, brooders etc...Oxine would be ineffective on your yard, just like bleach is ineffective on dirt. ETA: I believe agricultural lime would be best for your yard, not hydrated lime.
