swine health blackbelt Sep 13, 2023

In today's episode of the Swine Health Blackbelt Podcast, we dive deep into the crucial topic of biosecurity within pig farms. As we know, biosecurity serves as a fundamental principle, pivotal to successful pig production. To discuss that, we bring in a special guest, Dr. Jeroen Dewulf, a leading Professor of Veterinary Epidemiology at Ghent University in Belgium. Dr. Dewulf has devoted a large part of his distinguished career to the study of infection prevention and biosecurity strategies, significantly contributing to the veterinary epidemiology realm. Here, Dr. Dewulf shares with us a very interesting tool on measuring biosecurity in a practical way.
