NAHMS collects data directly from the farm through na tional studies involving a random sample of operations that are selected to represent the national animal population. The first NAHMS national study was the 1990 National Swine Survey. This May, the program began its second study of the pork industry with the Swine ’95: Grower/Finisher. The Swine ’95 study will identify changes since 1990 in man agement practices in all production phases, then concentrate on animal health and management in the grower/finisher phase. Though NAHMS’ first charge is to develop a national data base, study benefits begin with the individual participants. “Producers that contributed data during our first national study told us they got a lot out of seeing where they fell in relation to other opera tions and in identifying weak areas and potential improvements,” said Dr. Eric Bush, NAHMS swine commodity specialist. “We expect to deliv er the same benefits for the Swine ’95 producers.” In an evaluation following the 1989-1990 stu dy. 90 percent of the producers said they would recommend participation in the program to other producers. An overwhelming percentage was confident that the program would benefit the swine industry as a whole, a concept reflected by the volume of data that have been applied to re search and educational projects. “Seeing data put to use from the 1990 survey has been exciting,” said Dr. Bush. “Some of the highlights have been in use of a serum bank to re search transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE), por cine reproductive and respiratory virus (PRRS), and toxoplasmosis. Legislators have used water quality results to determine need for regulations, and universities and the National Pork Producers’ Council have applied various topics to their re search work.” For more information on NAHMS and NAHMS studies, contact USDA:APHIS:VS, Centers for Epidemiology and Animal Health, Attn.
