PRRSV control and eradication in Spanish farms Enric Marco marcoi collell; S.L.
“Test and removal” (Dee and Molitor, 1998), • Closed up of the herd (Torremorell and Christianson, 2001) • Partial depopulation (Plomgaard, 2001) PRRS is possible
Persistence of the virus (Zimmerman, et al., 1992) • 152 days in tonsils of infected animals (Wills, et al. 1997) • 92 days in semen (Christopher-Henningset al., 1995, Swenson et al. 1994) • Viremic piglets can shed virus up to 7-16 weeks (Benfield et al., 1996) Critical points
Year 2,000 • 230 sows farm • Farrow to finish herd. • Batch farrowing every 15 days. • Finishing capacity: 50% • Sows: LD x LW • Boars: Pietrain-Halothane (-) (I.A.) The farm
Sus Scrofa (Cal Rech, Barcelona) The farm
Aujeszky’s disease • PRRS • Mange • Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae • Actinobacilluspleuropneumoniae • Finishing mortality up to 25-30% The farm –health status
Eradicate: • PRRS • App • Mange Objective
Switzerland eradicate M. hyo from small herds (Zimmerman, 1996). • Denmark, the same methods are apply in larger herds (Plomgaard, J. 1998) Eradication plan
BASES: • No animals present younger than 10 month of age. • No replacement during 6 months. • Nursery and finishing depopulation. • Stop farrowing or move them to other facilities. • Medicate the remaining stock Eradication plan
Medication all remaining animals: • 5 injections of enrofloxacin (2,5 mg/Kg. BW) on days 1, 4, 8, 11 and 14. • 2 injections of Doramectin (3 mg./Kg. BW) 14 days apart. • Good cleaning and disinfection of empty rooms. Eradication plan
Sows wean outside farm were located in isolation during 15 days • Where received Enrofloxacin and Doramectin. • A.I. during this period. • Remodelling took place during the eradication time. Eradication plan
No clinical signs of mange observe till now. • No mange control is done. • No lesions, no clinical signs of App observed till now. Results
M.hyois still present on the farm. • Replacement come from a positive source. • Farm produced PRRS negative stock until December 2001 when became reinfected. Results
Case 2: PRRS eradication in a small farrow to finish Boar multiplier by total depopulation
Year : 2,002 • 300 sows farm • Farrow to finish herd. • Boar multiplier • Batch farrowing every week. • Finishing capacity: 50% (boars and replacement) • Sows: LW and (LW x Pt) • IA in the farm: 5 boars: Pietrain The farm
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae • PRRS infected in August 2001 The farm –health status
BASES: • Stop positive replacement during 6 months. • Nursery and finishing depopulation. Eradication plan

January 2004: same process is done again • October 2004: Positive animals in Finishing again • EXTERNAL FINISHING HAS NOT BEEN EMPTIED Eradication continues
January 2005: TOTAL DEPOPULATION • May last PRRS (+) sows farrow • July 2005 first sows farrow • To accelerate the program matings has been done out side. • New stock: • PRRS negative • M. hyo negative Eradication continues
Year 2,003 • 1.400 sows multiplier farm • 3 sites herd. • Farrowing every week. • Sows: Lw and Ld x Lw • AI boar stud in farm • 6 Boars: LD and (Lw x D) The farm

BASES: • Stop positive replacement during 6 months. • Nursery and finishing depopulation. Using the possibility of new facilities. Eradication plan
March 2003: Last replacement PRRS (-) • June 2003: Last replacement show titers to PRRS • June 2003: Inside nurseries emptied • July 2003: 4 weeks after, weaned pigs moved to new sites 3 (wean to finish) • Own replacement and few more to fill up barns. Eradication Plan
July 2003: inside nurseries emptied • October 2003: Inside Finishing barn emptied • November 2003: New PRRS replacement located in new inside finishing barn. • Managed independently. • November 2003 old inside finishing remodeled to gestation • December 2003: • Elimination of any gilt or sow PRRS (+) not mated. • Stop using PRRS (+) boars Eradication Plan
February 2004: Replacement in new site 3 negative to PRRS is moved to site I. • March 2004: last farrowings from PRRS (+) sows • April 2004: first farrowing from new PRRS (-) gilts. • April 2004: weaners moved to new Site 2. • April 2004: Old site 2 is emptied. Eradication Plan
Up today all analysis have shown negative results form all sites. Results
Form last replacement negative to become positive: 3 m. • From last replacement negative to first weaners (future replacement on external site) that remain on farm: 4 m . • From last replacement once positive to new replacement negative: 5 m. Production gaps
