recent upsurge which has caused
30 herds to go into quarantine.
The state vet told the group the
Department is encouraging
producers with PRV in the herd to
depopulate. He added the Bureau
of Animal Industries is not plan
ning to approve a pseudorabies
vaccine for use within Penn
sylvania.
“Once a pig is vaccinated for
pseudorabies, it is impossible to
differentiate between an infected
hog and one that’s had the vaccme.
And, a vaccinated pig can be ex
posed to the virus and actually pick
it up and become a earner. This
wouldn’t be able to be diagnosed
through blood testing because the
pig would test positive for PRV
regardless.”
Van Buskirk informed producers
a negative blood test for PRV
should be done 30-days prior to any
breeding stock being brought into
Pennsylvania These hogs should
be isolated before introducing
them to the herd, he said, and
retested within 15 to 30 days after
arrival.
Market hogs that have been
exposed to PRV must go directly to
slaughter, noted Van Buskirk.
And, any feeder pigs carrying
pseudorabies virus must be fed out
at a quarantined feedlot.
The PDA vet told the producers

the state wants to eradicate the
disease, not just control it He
announced the federal government
has introduced a first draft of
suggested minimum standards for
a national pseudorabies program,
which could include an indemnity
program, personnel, and research
funds.
However, Van Buskirk was
quick to point out, producers
should not count on the funds to
bail them out of this disease
dilemna considering the current
Washington administration’s
feelings on additional programs.
The PDA vet appealed to all the
hog producers to cooperate in the
effort to confine and eventually
eradicate the disease. One step, he
suggested, might include per
manent identification on all hogs,
such as branding or tatooing, so
that hogs could be traced back to
their point of origin
Current trends m the hog market
were discussed by James Yergler,
president of Hienold Hog and
Cattle Markets Inc., Kouts, In
diana.
“Hog prices in the future are
going to be vulnerable,” he said
“But, we’ve got a strong demand
for pork built into the market with
last spring’s low prices, so hog
production should be profitable.”
Just how profitable it will be
will depend on the price of com.
