PRRS

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is a viral disease that causes a decrease in reproductive performance in breeding animals and respiratory disease in pigs of any age. PRRS is the most economically significant disease affecting swine production in the world today.

BOEHRINGER INGELHEIM INTRODUCES ONLINE BIOSECURITY RISK ASSESSMENT TOOL FOR SWINE FARMS WORLDWIDE

As an important pillar of the 5-Step Process, COMBAT enables us to understand current constraints (Step 3 of 5-Step Process ) by ANALYZE, VISUALIZE, BENCHMARK, and GUIDE TO IMPROVE Biosecurity and Management in farms.

The new tool is part of suite of solutions to improve farm biosecurity and control of PRRS (Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome)

COMBAT App version is an important extension of the online version within www.5stp.com, sharing the same user account.

P-TRACK: A NEW TOOL TO ASSESS AND MONITOR BIOSECURITY AND MANAGEMENT RISKS IN PIG FARMS

When implementing a disease control plan is it essential to follow a systematic approach like the 5-step process. First, the goals and expectations for the particular farm must be set. Then the current status of the farm must be determined. In the third step the constraints must be identified, namely biosecurity and management risks that we have in the farm or system. Considering the information of the previous 3 steps we can then design a proper set of solutions (step 4) and in the final step, we implement the solutions chosen and monitor the results (step 5).
