In the early 80’s, health was not a concern for genetic suppliers. Mass vaccinations were common and there was almost no information available on the costs incurred by diseases. It was only after Genetiporc was founded in 1984 and provided the first assessments on the economic impact of major diseases on swine production that the industry began to seriously examine the problem.
Genetiporc’s health program has been designed to minimize production cost for commercial farms. Creating and maintaining a production network free of primary diseases and their associated economic impact has guided Genetiporc’s efforts since its very foundation. The rigorous application of strict biosecurity measures constitutes a fundamental priority. Genetiporc’s team has developed a biosecurity “reflex” that has become second nature. |
 Strict visitor control  Buying breeding stock with exceptional health status: • Facilitates the animal quarantine process • Prevents the introduction of new pathogens • Prevents the introduction of new strains of an existing pathogen into the herd Maintaining a herd’s exceptional health status: • Enhances feed conversion ability and growth rates • Reduces expenses for medication and care • Streamlines work processes and decreases task time • Increases percentage of marketed pigs • Rigorous biosecurity protocols • PRRS & Mycoplasma naïve network for over 20 years |
