GLOBAL - Porcine Epidemic Diarrhoea (PED) presents a whole new range of challenges to the US pig sector when it comes to forecasts for pork production and prices; this was clear from the quarterly 'Hogs & Pigs' report, published last week and the commentary upon it.

Vets and farmers in the UK explored biosecurity as a vital way to keep PED and African swine fever off the country's farms at a workshop last week.
