Keeping your pigs healthy, happy and productive depends on smallholders as well as farmers with larger pig units, following several straightforward measures. Implementing good biosecurity practices will help to prevent disease occurring - prevention is always better than cure.
Reducing the risk of disease occurring in your pigs not only contributes to good animal health and welfare, but also reduces the need for expensive treatments. Other production aspects such as feed efficiency and growth rates are also less likely to be impacted resulting in a more profitable business.
