7 features common to all projects

  • 1. Establish PRRS status in area
  • 2. Map sites within area
  • 3. Share information amongst producers
  • 4. Sign cooperation agreements
  • 5. Use AASV Production Animal Disease

Risk Assessment Program (PADRAP) and emphasize biosecurity improvements/risks

  • 6. Testing to monitor site status over time
  • 7. Herd plans to reduce prevalence or

eliminate PRRS virus in the region

Objectives of the Iowa County Project

  • To demonstrate and develop steps needed to implement a

regional PRRS control program

  • Study the impact of PRRS virus movement within a prescribed

area over time

  • Study the impact of pig movement on the PRRS virus into and

within the study area

  • Reduce the prevalence of the PRRS virus within the selected

area

Methods

  • Enroll producers by obtaining production information for each site

– Sign agreements to share information w/ hold harmless clause

  • Initial PRRS testing of each site

– by serum (PCR and ELISA) – Diagnostics preformed at ISU VDL

  • Complete PADRAP for each site
  • Routine testing of sites

– by serum and oral fluids

  • Sample sites with active PRRS infections to characterize strain to

learn about potential area spread

  • Map location and type of production sites in project area
  • Herd Plans – control or eliminate PRRS virus from site

Herd Veterinarians

  • Each site will designate their own vet
  • Vets responsible for

– Developing herd plan with producers – Conduct PADRAP analyses – Routine sampling of sites

Timeline of Progress

  • On-going efforts

– Sites continuing to be enrolled – First test round for site status of enrolled – Evaluation of obtained data on incidence and virus diversity – Refinement of enrollment processes based on experiences in past 6 months

Challenges

  • Relatively dense pig area with sizable percentage
  • f nursery-finish or wean finish facilities

– Significant movement of non-locally pigs – Variety of sources for weaned pigs

  • Producer recruitment – issues

– Agreement on Hold Harmless document – Confidentiality vs. public information for data – Attendance at meetings

  • Funding

2 Big Opportunities

  • 1. Collaborate

– ELIMINATE virus from individual sites

&

– BIOSE BIOSECUR CURIT ITY t Y to keep it cont

  • keep it contained/out!

ained/out!

  • Improve bio-exclusion – keep virus out
  • Improve bio-management – control spread within site
  • Practice bio-containment – if present keep virus within
  • AASV’s PADRAP – uniform risk evaluations – find holes!
  • 2. Learn

– Limits to area spread – factors to consider? – Importance of source herd status on area spread? – Can we learn to manage it better?
