22-Oct-2021xavier-chehriwhat do you think about the impact of post weaning production system differences such as high diarrhea cross contamination or respiratory air borninfections when all piglets are in the same barn with no separated rooms (such as posr weaning barns in Europe) ? no separation walls allowing piglets cross contamination ? need to treat the entire barn instead of on room of 200 piglets only leading to significant antibiotic over consumption ?
best regards

16-Dec-2020GEHI am never quite sure why attention to C & D ranks so low in the list of wasy to reduce antibiotic use..? Biosecurity can be a tad vague.. Two things I would liek to see emphasised. 1) Robust cleaning regime with the use of GOOD detergent..!! not justa pressure washer.. Need to attack the biofilm.. 2) Use of the disinfectant often needs attentiontoo.. Choice? Effectiveness of the proposed disinfectant to inlcude DIFFICULT organism (Many do not) Plus Attention to Concentration and applciation rates, duration of contact. use of disinfectant onto dry surfaces to avoid dilution..
