Husbandry EducationTM sets the new standard for animal care.
INTRODUCING HUSBANDRY EDUCATION
Pfi zer Animal Health offers pork producers an innovative, industry-leading Husbandry Education™ training program. It begins with a Pfi zer Animal Health Husbandry Educator™ at your site. Working with your team, a Husbandry Educator:
• Assesses needs • Helps execute your existing protocols • Improves knowledge and skill of caregivers and managers• Provides one-on-one education of animal caregivers
Husbandry Education focuses on the pig, giving the workers a model for treating the sick ones sooner. With this program they see that it can work if they identify the right pigs and act quickly enough and do it every day.

HUSBANDRY EDUCATION OVERVIEW
Your on-site Husbandry Educator helps transform workers intotrue caregivers by teaching identifi cation of ABC pigs, individual pig treatment and effective medication use.
Implementing best practices across the production system results in a more effi cient and empowered labor force consistently providing pigs greater comfort and a performance-enhancing environment.
