Dr. Scott Dee: Feed Safety in Swine | Ep. 205

Understanding the risk factors for virus transmission associated with feed and its ingredients is vital in the swine industry. Since viral diseases pose a significant threat to swine herds, it is necessary to have effective intervention strategies and robust biosecurity measures. To shed light on these matters, I talk with Dr. Scott Dee, a renowned expert in swine disease management. He emphasizes the importance of feed and its ingredients in disease transmission and highlights the critical priorities of on-farm biosecurity. Also, he discusses the significance of biosecurity protocols for supporting producers in the management of risks on farms and enhancement of biosecurity at the feed mill level."Post-processing contamination is where the trouble lies, since viruses infiltrate farms through dust particles, exhaust fans, and contaminated surroundings." - Dr. Scott DeeWhat you’ll learn:(00:00) Highlight(01:20) Introduction(05:10) The key priority of on-farm biosecurity: foreign animal disease control(13:20) Supporting producers: managing biosecurity risk factors on farms(19:37) The critical role of Feed in disease transmission(23:33) Managing the risks posed by incoming feed ingredients(27:48) Enhancing biosecurity at the feed mill level(34:39) Final questionsMeet the guest: Dr. Scott DeeExperience:Current: Emeritus Director of Discovery and InnovationPast: swine practitioner, professor (UMN), research directorBackground:D.Dipl.
