Autor: Bottoms, K. Dewey, C.E. Richardson, K. Poljak, Z. Carter, N.

Biosecurity protocols reduce the introduction and spread of pathogens among swine farms. For pigs, biosecurity ensures market stability, maintains export opportunities, and controls spread of production and public health diseases. Salmonella, the second most common cause of bacterial foodborne il...

We used face-to-face interviews to gather data on pig feeding practices in rural Busia District, Kenya. We visited 164 pig farms three times in the course of the study period. The pigs were weighed in kilograms during the visits. Feeds offered to pigs were described during the interviews. The mos...

BACKGROUND – Certain pathogens can be spread between farms via fomites, including contaminated boots, clothing, hands, and vehicles. Additionally, feed and/or specific protocols for the delivery of feed have been associated with the transmission of swine diseases. This project allowed for the ide...

The purpose of this research is to assess how season, ADG, opportunity costs of farm-grown feeds, pig weight, and butcher price variation impact the economic potential of semi-intensive pig rearing. We developed a unique algorithm that emulates least-cost pig feeding and used it to assess the imp...
