4. Training Tools for Best Management Practices for Farm Biosecurity for Pig Production

4.1.1.5 Ensure that you are notified if the health status changes.

• Example 1 of a Vet to Vet Pre-Purchase
  
• Template for a Breeding Stock Health Pre-Purchase Report
  
• Sample change of healt status report from source veterinarian
  

4.1.4.1 Locate quarantine/isolation facilities (barn or room) on the site that presents the least risk of contamination.

• Guide to designing a quarantine facility and protocols to introduce pigs
  
• Example of a quarantine barn (indicated by 1) located away from the sow barn
  
  

4.1.4.2 Use a written animal introduction protocol for all tasks including the entry process, biosecurity, feeding, monitoring and testing.

• Example of a health and processing protocol for the gilt entry to the quarantine
  

4.1.4.10 Use appropriate serological and other tests on isolated animals to determine their status.

• Guide to collection of oral fluid samples for testing
  
• Example of the logistics and protocol for incoming pigs including plans for the trucker, staff and manager
  
• Template for a Quarantine Pig Movement Log
  
• Template for Quarantine Treatment and Mortality Log
  

4.1.5.1 Develop a disease response plan with your veterinarian in case a disease is suspected.  An example of an emergency planning document would include disease response. The disease response plan should consider under what circumstances the producer would contact their farm veterinarian or the CFIA, as well as implement stricter biosecurity practices.

• Sample Response Plan if a disease occurred in the herd or quarantine unit
  

4.1.6.1 Within a production system, move incoming pigs from lower health risk to higher health risk sites.

• Example of a production system / multiplication system protocol for uni-directional movement
