Testimonial
of a Producer
"We have been using MJPRRS in our
800 head sow herd since April, 2006. Since that time, we have
been giving quarterly shots to our sow herd and two shots to
all incoming gilts before entering the breeding barn. There
has been no negative effect on the sow herd by vaccinating with
the product. Since we have been using MJPRRS, we have been producing
the highest quality PCR negative weaner pigs ever in the last
15 years. The vaccine has been working effectively and is very
cost-effective.
Our
herd was challenged in January, 2008 by the new strain circulating
in the upper Midwest and the vaccine worked wonderfully with
our farm suffering only a handful of abortions. The neighboring
farms not on MJPRRS suffered a huge percentage of abortions
and high sow mortality. Our production has risen from 20 pigs
per sow per year (PSY) to the current level of 26 PSY since
we have been using MJPRRS."
