❗ 🐖 Haemophilus parasuis is a member of the normal res-
piratory microbiota and is ubiquitous in swine herds
worldwide.
❗🐖 The clinical signs and lesions described for H. parasuis
systemic infection are not pathognomonic of this agent,
and other agents must be included in a differential diag-
nosis. Fibrinous polyserositis may be caused by other
gram‐negative bacteria such as nonhemolytic Escherichia
coli . Polyserositis caused by nonhemolytic
E. coli is sporadic and usually affects suckling piglets.
❗🐖 Antibiotic treatment remains an essential control
measure in the face of severe outbreaks of H. parasuis
systemic infection. Injectable treatments tend to be more
effective than water or feed medication, since pigs clini-
cally affected by H. parasuis systemic infection are less
likely to ingest the required antibiotic dose via food and
water intake. Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory treatment
may assist recovery.
❗🐖 Antibiotics are widely used to prevent and control
H. parasuis disease, but put more emphasis on vaccination
strategies to prevent systemic infection and mortality as
vaccination is really effective.

What does it take to grow such a huge piglets?!

9,58 kg(21,12 lb) per weaned pig in 23 days(115 kg. in total)

Seems like a pretty good sow! 🐖🐷

In ESF-systems all sows are equipped with an electronic transmitter. The transmitter sends a message to the feed dispenser stating how much feed the individual sow needs and the ration is distributed over the next 24 hour.

A feed dispenser can normally serve 50-70 sows. The system enables individual feed supply and automatic rejections of certain animals after feeding. By ESF all feed dispensers can be checked by letting a fictional sow (an ear tag) go through the dispenser before transferring sows to the pen.

It is recommended that sow are being trained in the ESF- system before the first insemination. Training is not recommended when mixing, socializing, flushing,inseminating or during the first 4 weeks after insemination.

By electronic sow feeding, the group is fed over many hours during the day and night. There will often be congestion in front of the dispenser and thus there is a risk of aggression just as inferior sows are often forsed to feed when they should be resting.

The gestation period is period from insemination till the onset of farrowing. On average a sow is gestant 116-117 days. In a popular term she is gestant three months, three weeks and three days.

In the gestation unit supervision is crucial. All animal must be supervised on a daily basis to check that all animals are able to get up.

Sows in the gestation unit must always be checked for signs of oestrus. If dry sows are not found early, many resources are wasted on feed, space and management, resulting in non-productive days!

It is often thought that because biotin is present in most nutrient sources used for pigs and is synthesised in the gut, a deficiency is unlikely. However field experience indicates that biotin-deficient conditions can (and do) occur in breeding herds world-wide.Widespread lameness will be a constant feature, particularly in sows.

Detailed examinations should be carried out on at least 15 to 20 affected animals and the nature of the changes in the hooves documented. Examinations are best made when sows and gilts are at rest. The hooves will be soft over the walls and the soles will show slight evidence of haemorrhage. Dark transverse cracks will be seen on the hoof walls. Assess trauma from poor floor surfaces as a cause.

Pig farmers experiencing poor reproductive performance in their sow herds, associated with excessive loss of hair and severe foot lesions, should evaluate the biotin content of their sow diet and consider supplemental biotin.

My name is Andrei and I'm passionate about producing food. I've been working in different countries such as Denmark🇩🇰, Ukraine 🇺🇦and Canada🇨🇦. During last 10 years I've been investing💰 in books📚 and different courses. This group I decided to create for all people that are involved in agriculture as well as pork production, genetics and breeding. The main idea is to connect people from all over the world with similar interests, business owners, vets and pork production technicians to discuss different topics and share of the experience with each other.👊

Welcome to join me in this group🐷🐖🐽
