• YHH - 2009: Focus on disease control
• EMPH - 2011: Training (health and biosecurity)
• EPH - 2010: Biosecurity to improve health status
Regional Pig Health Schemes
Yorkshire, Humberside, East Anglia, East Midlands

Regional Health Programmes
• No pig farmers, no pig industry
• The larger the disease free area
• longer on average to breakdown
• longer payback period on investment
• Producer driven strategy
• Biosecurity
• Sharing
• Better diagnostics
• Collaboration

Producer Disclosure & Mapping
• Need producer permission to complete survey

Central elements for success
Element of success The difficulty
High biosecurity Buy in of whole chain
Motivated farmers Funding fluctuations
Collaboration of neighbours Commitment, negative neighbours
Right procedure for the problem
Buy in from vets

Regional Steering groups
• LOCAL!!!!!
• Local chair -farmer
• Local producers – integrated and farmer-owned
• Local supply chain (breed, feed, processors etc)
• Local veterinary surgeons
Back in Yorkshire….....

Action plan - logistics
• Online planning tool for (multiple) de-populations
• Date, information who to inform, when etc.
• Vets and JSR
• Needs someone to try it.

Biosecurity benefits for breeders from mapping
• Identification of units and areas with few units – density
• Vehicle movements – via GPS tracking
• People movements – mobile
• Link with eAML2

Future benefits for breeders from mapping • Platform for other development
• Incorporate info into evaluations:
• Epidemiology
• Incorporate weather
• Has disease status
• Biosecurity scores
• Risk assessment
• How else should we use it?
