PRRS Outbreak Prediction via Deep Switching Auto-Regressive Factorization Modeling [PDF]
We propose an epidemic analysis framework for the outbreak prediction in the livestock industry, focusing on the study of the most costly and viral infectious disease in the swine industry -- the PRRS virus. Using this framework, we can predict the PRRS outbreak in all farms of a swine production system by capturing the spatio-temporal dynamics of ...

Survey of wild boar hunter interactions with pig farming in central Europe
The study aimed to evaluate the potential role of hunting events in ASF spread in Hungary. The recorded interviews revealed that an extent backyard pig sector and pork production system is operated by the low‐income hunting workers. The findings called attention to the high epidemiologic risk of socioeconomic inequality between different European ...

Generation of swine movement network and analysis of efficient mitigation strategies for African swine fever virus [PDF]
Animal movement networks are essential in understanding and containing the spread of infectious diseases in farming industries. Due to its confidential nature, movement data for the US swine farming population is not readily available. Hence, we propose a method to generate such networks from limited data available in the public domain.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of a commercial acidifier on egg production and histology of small intestine in laying Japanese quail. Our results indicate that supplementation of 1 and 2.6 g acidifier per kg of diet was associated with beneficial effects on egg production and quality, GIT pH and histology of small

Multiple species animal movements: network properties, disease dynamic and the impact of targeted control actions [PDF]
Infectious diseases in livestock are well-known to infect multiple hosts and persist through the combination of within- and between-host transmission pathways. Uncertainty remains about the epidemic consequences of the disease being introduced on farms with more than one susceptible host.
