Send us a textEpisode Overview:In this special replay from The Real P3, celebrating #Porktober24, Coffee in the Barn brings you a unique episode featuring Philip and Dr. Andrew Tucker, a seasoned swine veterinarian from South Africa. As they travel through Zimbabwe, they discuss swine health and production across Africa, addressing the diverse challenges and opportunities faced by farmers on the continent.The conversation delves into essential topics such as biosecurity in pig farming, the need for stringent disease prevention measures, and the inspiring story of how pig carcasses are used to help feed endangered vultures in a conservation initiative known as "buzzard cafes." Dr. Tucker shares his insights into the practical realities of farming in Africa, the severe impact of power outages on agriculture, and the incredible resilience of farmers dealing with these issues.With over 20 years of experience in the field, Dr. Tucker's passion for pig farming began on his family's piggery in South Africa. Now working across the continent, he implements cutting-edge biosecurity protocols to prevent diseases like African Swine Fever (ASF). Dr. Tucker stresses the importance of strict "shower in, shower out" practices and pathogen-free farming in areas where diseases such as mycoplasma, PRRS, and ASF pose significant risks to pig health and production.Highlights from the conversation:Biosecurity: Dr. Tucker explains how farms in Zimbabwe and South Africa are SPF (Specific Pathogen-Free), and the strict protocols they follow to prevent diseases like ASF, mycoplasma, and swine dysentery.Innovative Waste Management: Dr. Tucker talks about "vulture restaurants," where pig mortalities are used to feed endangered vultures. This practice helps preserve the birds while preventing the spread of disease.African Pig Farming Challenges: From navigating dangerous roads in Nigeria to handling the economic impacts of power outages and rising grain prices, Dr. Tucker provides insight into the resilience and resourcefulness of African pig farmers.One of the most unique aspects of the episode is Dr. Tucker's work with vulture conservation. These “vulture restaurants” supply food to critically endangered birds while also addressing farm waste management. This innovative practice contributes to wildlife preservation and demonstrates how pig farming can positively impact the environment.Dr. Tucker also highlights African farmers' economic pressures, mainly due to rising grain prices and power cuts. Despite these challenges, his optimism about the future of African agriculture shines through, emphasizing how farmers adapt and find innovative solutions.Tune in to this #Porktober24 episode to explore how African pig farms embrace sustainability, strengthen biosecurity, and contribute to conservation efforts—all while navigating the complexities of modern pig farming.Support the showConnect with us on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn:@cofeeinthebarn

EPISODE 20 DETAILS TEXAS WILDFIRE CATTLE LOSSES RISE; PROCESSORS RISE TO THE OCCASION Cattle losses from the historic Texas Panhandle wildfire are mounting, as ranchers and ag authorities assess the damage. The count is at 7,000 head and rising as the cleanup from the Lone Star State's largest-ever wildfire continues; the Texas Dept. of Agriculture expects to add thousands more to the tally. While that's a small fraction of Texas's nation-leading 12-million-head herd, the local effects are devastating. The losses in Oklahoma are obviously fewer than Texas, but a multitude of donation centers have been set up just over the border in Oklahoma, including that of the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association Foundation. The link for them is in the show notes along with other organizations rallying together that are coordinating donations like the Working Ranch Cowboys Association, The Texas Farm Bureau, and the Texas & Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association. Head to ranchitupshow.com to find their direct links. WHERE TO DONATE A number of organizations are working very hard to help manage the donations that are coming in across the country. Here are a few places to look into should you want to donate and assist.

The Canadian government announced an investment of C$1.7 million to Animal Health Canada (AHC) to support its role in preventing foreign animal diseases such as African Swine Fever (ASF) and Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD). Nearly C$1 million of the funds from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's African Swine Flu Industry Preparedness Program will help AHC coordinate prevention efforts against an African Swine Flu outbreak on Canada's swine industry. Meanwhile, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is contributing nearly C$698,000 to AHC to support efforts over the next two years to boost preparedness for African Swine Flu and Foot and Mouth Disease. The money will fund surveillance data analysis, training, and the development of a vaccine strategy in the event of a Foot and Mouth Disease outbreak in Canada. The announcement comes as African Swine Flu continues to spread to new lands. Albania, for example, reported its first case last week, making it the 28th European country to confirm African Swine Flu since it was first found on the continent in 2007. BEEF PACKER MARGINS IMPROVE BUT REMAIN DEEPLY RED Despite some improvements, beef packer margins continue to struggle in 2024. According to the latest Sterling Beef Profit Tracker, packer margins for the week ending March 2 were -$105.69/head, versus a profit of $8.17/head a year ago. Higher feed costs, meanwhile, contributed to a $1.75/head loss for feedlot margins the week ending March 2, down from a $14.19 profit a week ago (but above early February's $54.31 loss). A year ago, feedlot margin was a profit of $170.02/head. Annual projections still have feedlot margins at a $132.75 profit for 2024, down from $264.47 in 2023; packer margins, meanwhile, are currently estimated at a $36 loss this year, versus a flat $0.22 profit in 2023. Again, that is according to the Sterling Beef Profit Tracker. .

SwineCast 1247 Show Notes: Dr. Dusty Oedekoven (Chief Veterinarian, National Pork Board) toured the European Union and surrounding countries to learn more about how African Swine Fever (ASF) is managed. Key takeaway: The EU has zone standardization language and practices in place for regions with ASF. This standard helps provide bio-containment, bio-exclusion, and supports business …
Mizoram, a mountainous state nestling in the southern tip of the northeastern region of India, remains in constant threat of TADs, affecting the growth of livestock value chains. In recent years, the State suffered from Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) outbreak. Subsequently, the first outbreak of African Swine Fever (ASF) emerged and is continuing. The existing initiatives within the State primarily focus on emergency management cycle stages, viz. prepare, prevent, and detect. The expected outcome of the study is policy initiatives to enable the commissioning of a GIS-based decision support system (DSS) to support the implementation of action plans related to the 'response' and 'recover' phases.
Most pig farmers are already aware of the biosecurity measures they need to take to reduce the risk of disease outbreaks, such as ASF. So, what are the threats and what can we all do to keep ASF out of the UK? ASF is well-established in parts of Europe, Russia and China, with a reservoir of infection in the wild boar population. The recent announcement of ASF in a pig dense area of Germany, close to the Netherlands border, shows that the risk through human-mediated spread is high. The focus now must be on ensuring ASF does not spread further. In this episode of our Food and Farming podcast, hosted by Lauren Dimmack, Senior Animal Health & Welfare Scientist, we discuss biosecurity with guests Gemma Thwaites, President, Pig Veterinary Society; Chris Dodds, Executive Secretary, Livestock Auctioneers Association; Rebecca Veale, Senior Policy Adviser, National Pig Association (NPA) and Tony Bayles, AHDB Knowledge Exchange Relationship Manager, Pork (North).

The cull sow market in the United States has a surveillance problem. Drs. Lowe and Mitek are joined by Dr. Ben Blair to discuss his investigation into the cull sow marketing channel. Join them as they reveal the devastating implications of an ASF outbreak in cull sows and how it could affect the swine industry as a whole.
Listen in as AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich has a conversation with American Association of Swine Veterinarians (AASV) Executive Director Dr. Harry Snelson about African Swine Fever (ASF). ASF is a viral disease of swine that causes high morbidity and mortality when introduced into a herd. It is a hemorrhagic virus that causes fever, hemorrhagic disease and septicemia. Supportive care typically does not reduce the mortality associated with the disease and once introduced, the only current method of control is depopulation. Dr. Snelson informs us that there are vaccines being developed that may provide protection to pigs and decrease the spread of the disease. ASF was originally identified in sub-Saharan Africa in the early 1900s and first appeared outside of that region in the country of Georgia in 2007. The disease primarily spreads from contact with infected pigs, and therefore feral hogs can spread it across open-land borders. ASF spread through Russia, eastern Europe, and then in 2018, it appeared in China. China is the largest pork-producing nation as well as the largest consumer of pork. China also exports products that could serve as fomites for the spread of ASF. Snelson discusses the work of USDA, state animal health officials and the Customs and Border Protection agency to keep ASF out of the mainland U.S.. He reminds our listeners to be diligent about preventing the introduction of a foreign animal disease like ASF by not bringing in agricultural products when traveling outside of the U.S. and declaring farm visits or animal contact to customs upon re-entry. If ASF were introduced into the U.S., it would cause significant animal health issues due to the morbidity and mortality associated with the disease, as well as economic losses to the pork industry estimated at over $8 billion. The U.S. exports 27% of the pork we produce, and although there are no food safety issues or zoonotic concerns with ASF, the loss of exports and concerns from the public could have long lasting effects on the entire agricultural industry. Information about the Customs and Border Protection can be found at https://www.cbp.gov/ as well as their work in protecting agriculture at this link.

Guests: Dr. Jordan Gebhardt, Kansas State University and Dr. Chad Paulk, Kansas State University Co-host: Dr. Zack Lowman, BalchemTonight we are talking feed supply biosecurity and the many challenges we face as we try to keep various animal diseases at bay. In late July, the USDA announced that African Swine Fever was detected in the Dominican Republic, inching dangerously close to the U.S. swine herd.Dr. Jordan Gebhardt explained that African Swine Fever (ASF) is caused by a virus. He discussed the history of the virus and the impact that a disease like this can have on the animals, the producer and the industry. He also expressed his concern of the virus spreading to South America or Central America from its current location in the Dominican Republic. (7:26)Dr. Chad Paulk discussed the potential contamination of the feed supply if or when the virus reaches the United States and how the feed supply chain can be changed to help reduce the spread of the virus. (16:36)Dr. Jordan Gebhardt explains that African Swine Fever can only infect swine - domesticated pigs or wild boar. If a human were to consume a contaminated product, there would be no threat to them whatsoever. (24:03)Dr. Chad Paulk discusses prevention of the virus and steps to take in order to reduce the risk. He gave the example of a feed mill processing a potential contaminated product and producing particles in the air that could contaminate the airspace of a road that has a lot of swine in transit. The steps will have to be used by everyone involved in production to help eliminate the spread of the virus so it needs to be built into the industry culture if that time comes. (40:00)Dr. Jordan Gebhardt discusses the importance of making biosecurity practices convenient for the producer and their employees. If it is convenient for employees, they will be more likely to stick with the biosecurity measures to go about their daily routine. (51:43)Dr. Chad Paulk and Dr. Jordan Gebhardt both discuss the importance of working together as an industry to prevent this disease from making it to the United States as well as working together with biosecurity as an industry if/when it does get here.

Rabies is a horrible viral disease that affects the neurological system. Through the help of the legally required canine rabies vaccine in the US, cases of humans infected with rabies is lower than other parts of the world. African Swine Fever (ASF) is the world's oldest virus which is deadly for pigs and can be transmitted by dogs. Dogs can't become sick with ASF, but they can shed the virus after consuming infected pork. Dr. Lowe and Dr. Mitek break down infectious disease management and how ASF, rabies, and imported dogs are all interconnected in this episode of the Round Barn podcast.
Brought to you by Swineweb.com Dr. Clayton Johnson & Dr. Attila Farkas from Carthage Veterinary Service, LTD discuss recent developments with African Swine Fever (ASF) testing programs here in the United States. Dr. Attila explains how he was able to leverage his network of swine veterinarians in Romania to partner with USDA, National Pork Board & Plum Island Animal Disease Center to collect the already approved whole blood samples as well as oral fluids from Romanian swine farms undergoing an acute ASF outbreak. These samples will be transferred from the Romanian team to the United States for testing at Plum Island with the goal of helping us understand if oral fluids can be utilized as part of a comprehensive ASF testing program here in the United States. Learn about how these samples may have a dramatic impact on ASF control not only in the United States but around the world.

Guests: Brett Stuart & Richard Fritz, co-founders of Global AgriTrends The pubcast table is filled with new guests as we jump into a global topic on the Real Science Exchange. This week we focus on ag trends worldwide and what we can learn from past indicators and future outlook. Our co-hosts Scott Sorrell and Jonathan Griffin, are joined by the co-founders of Global AgriTrends, Brett Stuart & Richard Fritz. In December, Brett first initiated this conversation for the Real Science Lecture focused on Global Mega Trends in Agriculture. You can find that lecture here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZcIwJkv-vs&t=1283s. For more information on Global AgriTrends, check out their website at https://www.globalagritrends.com/. As conversation kicks off, both Brett and Richard dive into considering all prosperity levels when creating legislation that ties into the food supply, including GMOs. While it might not have an incremental change in the U.S. on our supply, it drastically changes the effect of those in third-world countries, including much of the African continent. 14:22 Brett discusses the need to understand where the population is located relative to where arable land is found. This comes into play with Asia as they continue to increase their agriculture imports as their population grows and the wealth within that population evolves. 22:05 Richard dives into his perspective that the extension service model adopted by the United States and Canada, and parts of India to provide free information and introduce new technology to farmers has decreased in many ways. Because of the change with much of the research going into the private industry, it has decreased the public sharing of information and, therefore, the progress some farms can make, especially in developing countries. 28:22 According to Brett, China’s hurdles with African Swine Fever (ASF) have driven their markets out of whack. It has also meant changes in the global grain markets and U.S. supply. Richard added with the change in U.S. administration, we will see what that means for holding China accountable to follow international trade laws and agreements. 30:16 From a biosecurity standpoint, it is being reported that ASF is still in China and, therefore, will continue to be an issue even with new facilities under construction. Richard discussed that one biosecurity change they have seen is the decrease of backyard hog production with a movement to large-scale facilities, which does shift the biosecurity concerns slightly. 43:21 Richard discusses from his experience in Sub-Saharan Africa that when the population shifts to having a higher income, they become more food insecure because they are moving away from producing their own food. 47:07 When wrapping up the conversation, Brett recommended U.S. producers consider their debt load they are carrying forward as the current price and market trends could help protect against interest rates. 54:27 Richard shared his closing thoughts focused on carbon and the continued push for bringing production agriculture into conversations focused on carbon offsets. 58:32 If you have questions not covered in the lecture or podcast discussion on global ag trends, feel free to email anh.marketing@balchem.com.
Infectious diseases threaten the health of people and animals and impact the global economy. The University of Saskatchewan's Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization (VIDO) works with international partners to study human and animal pathogens and develop solutions. VIDO-InterVac has developed a COVID-19 vaccine which it is preparing to test in humans. Just before Christmas VIDO-InterVac received approval from Health Canada to begin a combined phase-1, phase-2 human clinical trial of its vaccine to protect against COVID-19. Director and CEO Dr. Volker Gerdts says that vaccine was developed using a technology that is proved to be safe, reliable, and cost effective. We have heard about the devastating impact of African Swine Fever (ASF) on the pig population. Canada is still ASF free, but the work continues to prevent the spread but there is also a lot of work going on behind the scenes developing a strategy to deal with it IF it comes to Canada. John Ross with the Canadian Pork Council will explain the complex process involved in developing a plan in order to protect the industry. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
For the last Pig Edge podcast episode of the year, Ciarán Collins was joined by Michael McKeon, Specialist Pig Development Officer with Teagasc, based at Moorepark, with a review of the Irish Pig Sector in 2020 and the outlook for 2021 Michael covers what happened with pig and feed prices in 2020 and the impact that Covid-19 and the more recent outbreaks of African Swine Fever (ASF) has had on the sector. Despite all the difficulties during 2020, it still turned out to be a profitable year for Irish pig farmers. Looking forward to 2021, Michael discusses the pig meat and feed trade, the potential impacts that continuing Covid-19 and ASF problems may have and of course, the impact of a ‘deal or no deal' Brexit.

AbstractThe current pandemic of African Swine Fever (ASF) has caused major losses to the swine industry worldwide. Compartmentalization is one of the available tools to address the threat to business continuity posed by ASF to the industry. Although compartments have been implemented for various diseases and production types, no ASF-free swine compartment has been published by OIE to date. First, we outline the advantages of the approach as well as general challenges for implementation of an ASF-free swine compartment. ASF risk management ranges from prevention, preparedness and early detection activities in disease-free territories to response and eradication after disease introduction has occurred. We discuss the role for zoning and compartmentalisation within this spectrum and specific challenges associated with compartmentalisation (e.g., zero downtime, acceptance by the Veterinary Authority and trading partners).Then, we discuss two aspects of compartmentalization which are central for successful implementation: biosecurity and disease surveillance, using an illustrative example from North America. Both components are designed to provide evidence that compartment products are free from ASF virus. Biosecurity should be sufficient to mitigate the risk of introduction of virus via all potential routes such as people, fomites, live pigs, pork products and proximity pathways. Implementation of biosecurity measures should be thoroughly documented and auditable. Options for disease surveillance include barn-based observational surveillance, which is able to both support early detection and demonstrate freedom from ASF. Last, we discuss the relevant stakeholders, roles and responsibilities involved in the development of an effective national ASF compartmentalisation programme. Such programme should include a governance structure, standards for biosecurity, surveillance and traceability, auditing requirements and national ASF surveillance. While integrated swine production systems lend themselves well to compartmentalization, substantial work is required to develop such a programme. Benefits go beyond ASF preparedness,

Germany institutes “Agriculture Ban” on all crops within 30km of first confirmed African Swine Fever (ASF), which will not only provide FOOD & SHELTER to the wild hogs spreading the virus, but deprive Germany of that food left in the ground. If this irrational response sets precedent as the virus spreads across west Europe, we […]

SwineCast 1040 Show Notes: In this episode of At The Meeting Honoring Dr. Bob Morrison, discussion continues on African Swine Fever (ASF) outbreaks in China and Europe. Dr. Montserrat Torremorell, Dr. Tom Wetzell, and Dr. Gordon Spronk have an important conversation about the impact of ASF on the global swine industry, and what it could mean if it reaches the United States. The cohosts sit down with Dr. José Manuel Sánchez-Vizcaíno from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid to discuss the history of the disease and the work he and his team have done to combat ASF, such as developing laboratory tests to aid in diagnosis and control. "African swine fever is, in general, an underestimated disease that many people don’t understand," says Dr. Sánchez-Vizcaíno. "But one of the keys to fighting ASF is an early-detection system." #mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; } /* Add your own MailChimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block.
