In order to acquire a solid understanding of the impacts of a PRRS outbreak, researchers looked at hog operations in the mid-west United States to gain data. Sites were ranked based on there PRRS infection rates: 0 &#8211; consistent production of PRRS negative pigs, 1 &#8211; PRRS infected herds with no sign of PRRS in the nursery, and 2 &#8211; PRRS positive pigs in the nursery. Pig flows were tracked over seven months, and nursery data and finishing data was collected. Analysis of the data was able to provide a good look at the cost of PRRS, stating that:\u00a0 Income per pig weaned for status 0 was $42.64, for status 1 $40.46 and for status 2 it was $35.57. Also the PRRS status of each site moved linearly with wean-finish performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The PRRS virus is a serious problem for hog producers but it is often difficult to understand the economic impact of PRRS on a herd.
