Solution For PRRS

By: Robert Rowland, Professor/ Veterinarian, Kansas State University

K-State veterinarian Bob Rowland talks about his latest swine genetic work that could well lead to the full eradication of a long-standing and devastating disease in pigs, porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, or P-R-R-S…they have found that removing a certain protein from the sow’s genetic make-up can lead to P-R-R-S-resistant piglets.
