Show Notes
Welcome to “Talkin’ about Pigs” – a podcast where individuals from the Swine Medicine Education Center (SMEC) discuss swine health topics over coffee. Each podcast episode covers a different swine health topic of interest to pork producers. All topics are generated from pork producer questions! We keep the topic producer oriented, with the goal of bringing pork producers relevant information that they can bring back to the farm.Today’s podcast covers swine dysentery.
