New generation of swine farms focusing on reducing disease and increasing income

It is well known that What the pig farmer wants is a “profit” that comes from revenue minus production costs. But revenue is determined by the selling price. which fluctuates up and down according to market forces Farmers can’t control Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the management of production costs. to reduce the loss in the production process to the lowest possible because the more pigs sold the more you earn
Prof. Dr. Pariwat Poonperm, Faculty of Veterinary Science Kasetsart University reveals that profit is what pig farmers want. But farm price is uncontrollable. Because according to the market mechanism Therefore, we must turn to focus on managing production costs. by reducing the loss making the most pigs sold which must start from changing the way of thinking Because in the past, many farms, if the piglets came out small Weight less than 0.8 kg, discarded immediately. But nowadays you have to think Piglets are born alive. Regardless of the weight of only 0.4-0.6 kilograms, one must find a way to survive as much as possible.
Another disease that must be addressed in swine production is PRRS that cannot be overlooked. Zircovirus disease that can still cause damage from time to time. as well as PED that still encounters a few Scarlet fever may be found on farms that are not vaccinated against the disease. Artificial rabies is very rare due to vaccination. Swine Fever is still sporadic. But it should not be found in suckling piglets and nursery piglets because it indicates that the baby is not receiving colostrum. Foot and mouth disease is another disease that is still found periodically. Emphasis on vaccination according to the PED program is still found sporadic.
While APP disease, if found, can be treated with medication. And there is still African swine fever or ASF, although there is no outbreak in Thailand, but must be monitored closely. The disease management must start from the biosecurity system. (Biosecurity) that many farms neglect, although it is not difficult to practice, starting from having a rest period before entering the farm. Have a shower and change clothes and shoes. Outside cars parked away from the farm. by preventing disease from the outside Preventing the spread of disease within the farm and increasing disease resistance in pigs It is something that the farm has to do on a regular basis.
Colostrum is another factor that needs to be emphasized. Because piglets receive immunity from their mothers only through colostrum. Therefore, piglets must be managed to receive sufficient colostrum from their own mother for at least 6 hours, which colostrum will be produced 1-2 days before birth. and not panting in order to fully produce colostrum. In addition, one must know the health condition of the herd and see if there are any disease problems. When does each disease cause problems? which is different for each farm
biosecurity system Emphasis is placed on preventing diseases from the outside, where vehicles are considered an important factor in bringing pathogens into the farm from the study of risk factors for foot and mouth disease. It was found that the factors that carried the infection the most were vehicles, including pig catching vehicles, pig delivery vehicles, and feed transport vehicles. From the outbreak of ASF in China, Vietnam and recently reported in Cambodia. Therefore, we must be careful with vehicles transporting live pigs. By establishing a disinfectant spraying and cleaning plant at 5 important areas, namely Chiang Saen checkpoint, Chiang Khong checkpoint, Nong Khai checkpoint, Mukdahan checkpoint and Poipet checkpoint.
Pig catching vehicles are risk factors for the introduction of infection into the farm. Therefore, the pig catching car must be arranged to be cleaned. and disinfection before catching pigs for example in China Company farms in ASF outbreak areas, but not damaged Use a purchase method that acts as a selling point for pigs far from the farm and then uses a transport vehicle from the farm to transport the pigs to the point of sale and have the truck pick them up without having to go to the farm. Therefore, if every farm pays attention to pig catching vehicles Do not enter the farm area. or must be cleaned Disinfect before entering the farm It ensures that There is no disease from outside to spread to the farm. Therefore, pig catching vehicles and food transport vehicles are factors that farm owners must pay attention to.
