The Evolution of Pig Farming
• Pre 1950– Small subsistence herds < 10 sows
• 1950 to 1970– “Mortgage lifter” +/- 100 sows– Outdoor continuous flow farrow to finish– Selling or growing feeder pigs – “on dirt”– Pigs were produced in batches in mid west– Produced continuously in the south

Industry Structure: Historical Perspectives
• Before 1980 – high zoonosis potential
• Interface with wildlife and other domestic species – Low productivity/efficiency
• >8 million sows producing <100 million pigs• < 12 pigs per sow per year
– Different set of disease agents – More chronic diseases/syndromes– Higher suckling pig mortality– Little genetic improvement
• Pigs were fat • >3.5 pounds of feed per pound of gain• Slow growth rates

Historical Industry Perspectives
• After the late 1970’s • Margins and Efficiencies drove the industry
– Feed costs• Very low – corn hybrids and productive years
– Biological potential of the pig realized • Repetitive reproductive potential• Almost amazing growth potential
– 3 to 300# in six months
– Value created per pig• $30/pig margins
– Disease impact was highly variable during the period

Historical Industry Perspectives• Visionaries of the Day
– Producers• Wendell Murphy, Bill Prestage, and others
– Breeding Stock • Roy Pogue, Ken Woolley, and others
– Processors • Joseph W. Luter III
– Wall Street Investment Bankers – Brand Marketers
• Hormel etc. – First Integrators
• Premium Standard Farms

Historical Industry Perspectives
• Biosecurity Development– Before 1980 there was little
• SPF and some genetic companies
– Derived from observation - intuition– Types of Biosecurity
• Internal • External
– Last 5 years more science based

Pig Facility Development
• 1975 to 1985– Change to total confinement
• Improved welfare for people and pigs– Continuous flow (high disease burden)
• 1985 to 1995– Change to All-In, All-Out in all production stages
• Multisite production • This design eliminated many diseases
– Barn sizes based on the slaughter haul truck– Economies of scale and biologic efficiencies were
realized

AGE SEGREGATED REARINGSummary
• All In – All Out production– The most significant change in production practices over the past 100
years.– One age group per room or building
• Limits disease spread– Reduces and slows the horizontal transmission cycle
• Much Better at meeting the pig’s needs – Feed optimized for each age– Temperature optimized – Space and water delivery optimized– Improved vaccine efficacy– Etc.
Iowa State University College of Veterinary MedicineFood Supply Veterinary Medicine
Modern pig farm• The female population is divided into ~20
by-week groups of pregnant sows/gilts– Farrow a different group each week– Replacements are added to each group-week– 3 to 4 weeks lactation– 1 week breeding– 15 weeks gestation– Ideal total time from wean to wean is 19 weeks– Each female would ideally/potentially farrow
2.74 times/year

Summary
• One sow unit supplies pigs to multiple nurseries• Each nursery supplies pigs to at least two
different finishers• Production systems can be categorized as:
– Single, two, or three site systems– Single or Multiple sow source system
• Each system has pros and cons• Understanding pig flow is essential in allowing you
to better address the system’s pig health options
9 Week Cycle Example
• Most larger operations (>500 sows) have farrowings on a daily basis– Most ship pigs either once or twice a week
• This means, there needs to be an infrastructure (i.e. buildings) to receive pigs every week

• 9 week turn means that each nursery will receive pigs every 9 weeks
• This means that the producer who got pigs in week 1 will receive the next group of pigs in week 10
• Because of this, the producer must make room in the nursery for the next group of pigs before week 10
