PEDv Manure Sampling Protocol
Posted in: Pork Insight Articles, Prairie Swine Centre, Press Releases by admin on January 5, 2015
PEDv can affect all pigs and is often fatal to newborn pigs. However, it does not affect any other species, including humans, and is not a food safety issue.
Manitoba Pork has initiated a PEDv Manure Sampling project in 2014.
To participate in the project, producers can contact project coordinator, Darlene Meakin, at 204-897-0622 or dmeakin@manitobapork.com.
The following video produced by Manitoba Pork will take you through proper manure sampling procedure in testing for PEDv.
