What is BioSecurity?

Procedures intended to protect humans or animals against disease or harmful agents.

Did you Know?

Regardless of how many pigs you care for, whether it’s a single show pig or thousands of market hogs, you are part of the pork industry?
Just as you are responsible for keeping your show pig healthy, you share the responsibility of following biosecurity protocols to protect all pigs in the United States.
A healthy U.S swine herd starts with raising healthy pigs at home. Raising a healthy pig includes following biosecurity at pig shows.
