Control Strategies for Swine Salmonella Infection The infection of the swine herd with Salmonella and consequently, the presence of this micro-organism in swine products, has been a serious concern since it can be a great threat to the consumers themselves. Embrapa Swine and Poultry and UFRGS teamed up to develop tools and epidemiological studies that can characterize the problem, the contamination sources and the infection dynamics in the country's southern herds. This project aims to propose a systematic control of the Salmonella infection in Status: Completed Start date: Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2007
Clean Technologies Applied to Pig Farming: Establishing Sanitary and Environmental Standards of Effluents Reuse as Subsidies to Conservation and Efficient Use of Water The main environmental problems associated with the waste produced in intensive pig farming are its high organic load, high amount of nutrients, the presence of some metallic species and of micro-organisms, some of which are known pathogenic agents. In general, the waste treatment systems in pig farms still lack the ability to reduce or eliminate pathogenic agents from the waste produced, a fact which makes it difficult to reuse the water in the very facility or even in agriculture.

Pre-slaughter effects on the well being and meat quality on swines The consumer market is becoming increasingly demanding regarding the production conditions (environment, health and safety of foods). These health and safety demands on animal welfare come from "the outside to the inside" and may indirectly represent a setback in the market and consumption of products of animal origin. This project's goal is to develop technologies to improve the welfare of the animals, the meat quality and decrease quantitative and qualitative losses related to pre-slaughter ha ...

Family pig farming: Cooperation, communication and technology transfer for safe pork production without the use of antimicrobials The adoption of intensive pig farming systems brought economies of scale, greater productivity and logistic gains, but it increased the incidence of infections and animal stress levels, resulting in bouts of infectious diseases and making the use of antimicrobials in subtherapeutic or preventive doses necessary to promote growth and to mitigate the occurrence of diseases. However, the rise of viral infections in recent years, the increase in bacteria that are resistant to antimicrobials ... Status: Completed Start date: Tue Aug 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2017
