WASHINGTON - The U.S.
Department of Agriculture has
announced changes in its
pseudorabies control regulations
to give the livestock industry more
latitude in shipping swine in
terstate. The changes take effect
Dec. 12.
“In making these rule changes,
we’ve tried to establish a balance
between adequate protection
against the spread of pseudorabies
in swine and needless interference
in the movement of swine between
states,” said Bert W. Hawkins,
administrator of USDA’s Animal
and Plant Health Inspection
Service. We’ve been discussing
proposed revisions with the in
dustry since 1982.”

regulations, remove in
consistencies and bring the
regulations in line with currenty
industry practices,” Hawkins said.
The changes will provide the
following:

removing swine herds from the

- An alternate method for at

status.
