OHULEhA WARNfNG-Farmer
permitting pigs to go unvaccinated
against cholera, may be setting the
stage for heavy losses due to the
disease when the season arrives,
Ray. Lloyd, Associate County Agent
warns.
Livestock authorities are SER
iously concerned since cholera
costs U. S. swine producers about
$50 million a year.
The only safety is in protective
vaccinations before you have an
outbreak, Lloyd says.
Now farmers are urged to have
their veterinarian inoculate their
hogs as soon as possible because
cholera is very easily started and
spread.
